Protecting Victims of Human Trafficking Within a 'Non-Refoulement' Framework: is Complementary Protection an Effective Alternative in Canada and Australia?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Despite recognition that trafficking in persons constitutes a violation of the most fundamental human rights, adjudication of refugee claims made by victims remains a challenge. This article discusses the application of the refugee definition as well as of the complementary protection grounds under the CAT and the ICCPR to cases of human trafficking, and evaluates the comparative strengths of each approach in the context of Australia and Canada. While neither the Refugee Convention, the CAT nor the ICCPR offer a perfect framework for examining the claims of victims of human trafficking, they can work in a mutually complementary manner. It is therefore suggested that human trafficking cases are considered within a comprehensive framework, which involves examination of both Convention and non-Convention grounds of protection.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
