CTIP stands for which trio of concepts?

• A. Prevention, Prosecution, and Protection
• B. People, Policy, and Partnership
• C. Prohibition, Punishment, and Prevention
• D. Protection, Provision, and Placement

Answer: (A)

CTIP is built around three pillars: Prevention, Prosecution, and Protection. Prevention involves reducing vulnerabilities and stopping trafficking before it starts through awareness, safe migration practices, fair labor standards, and community resilience. Prosecution focuses on enforcing laws, prosecuting traffickers, and disrupting trafficking networks with strong judicial processes and international cooperation. Protection centers on the needs and rights of victims—identification, safe housing, medical and legal support, and access to services so they can recover and, if they choose, participate in justice processes. This trio best captures how CTIP programs aim to reduce trafficking risk, hold offenders accountable, and safeguard those affected. The other groupings don’t align with the established CTIP framework, as they use terms that aren’t the standard pillars of prevention, prosecution, and protection.
