Abstract
Trafficking in children is a long-lasting social problem in China. While evidence shows that the
majority of child trafficking incidents in the country involve women as perpetrators, females’
involvement in the illicit trade is underrepresented. This short essay focuses on women perpetrators
in child trafficking in China. It intends to explore who female traffickers are, what motivates women
to engage in child trafficking, how they access children, and what role they play in the trafficking
processes. By examining female child traffickers, this essay hopes to look deeper into the child
trafficking trade and to gain an in-depth understanding of the problem so as to help find better
solutions to respond to it.
