SPJIMR's Contribution In My Development - A Chartered Accountant's Story

Being a Chartered Accountant, decision of pursuing an MBA is something unusual. Already earning decently, working in a Big 4, age more than an average but still why not. And when I have completed my two years, re-entered the job matket, I realize that the decision of getting back to a b-school and especially, SPJIMR was really worth it. And if I wouldnot have invested my 2 years, it would have been a great regret. It would be something which I would never realize because I would have never seen it. There would have been a blank, a gap, a vaccum in my life.

Reimagining Human Trafficking

Reimagining Human Trafficking

One can’t deny that globalization, despite its multifarious positive spill-over effects, has been instrumental in further widening the chasm of economic welfare between the rich and the poor in each country. This chasm has ushered in a retrograde dynamic involving an accelerated emigration of the poor to “greener pastures” per se, in search of more lucrative employment opportunities. However, with the more affluent economies tightening the avenues of influx, these immigrants have been rendered more susceptible to human trafficking. Despite having attracted a considerable share of attention in the global milieu over the past decade, human trafficking is popularly perceived as a heinous crime involving the relegation of women to rather perverse streams of revenue in the informal sector (for ex. prostitution), thereby depriving trafficked workers, regardless of gender, involved in non-sexual labour of requisite attention. Furthermore, the legal framework designed to mitigate trafficking primarily treats it as a savage crime where the offenders deserve punishment and the victims ought to be rehabilitated into the “mainstream”. Thus, one can clearly trace a conspicuous void in terms of addressing the precursors that lead to trafficking, while formulating policies and setting agendas.
