Designing for Survivors of Trafficking
Sphere 2: Community Awareness and Supportive Approaches
Service Description
Target Skill Level: Intermediate TiD CEUs: 1.5 Presenters: Christine Cowart Course Length: 1.5 hours Trauma-informed Design (TiD) is a practice informed by our growing awareness and demands ethical, respectful, and supportive practices. As a training based in the second sphere of the TiD Framework, this session focuses on developing an awareness of the dynamics of human trafficking, how those may impact the recovery of survivors, and the typical recovery process. Understanding these dynamics and concepts helps TiD practitioners design more appropriate solutions for survivors at every stage. The training opens by introducing key terms and concepts related to human trafficking. It then moves on to the dynamics of human trafficking, to help us better understand the experiences of survivors. Next, it offers signs that can be used to recognize trafficking in our own surroundings, followed by a discussion of common misconceptions regarding trafficking. The course then introduces important elements of survivor support and explores what a survivor’s recovery path might look like. Knowing this will help us offer better support and design more appropriate solutions for their reintegration journey. The training culminates with concrete guidelines on how TiD practitioners can best care for survivors throughout the design process.
