Various methods were applied in order to assess trafficking in women and children in Croatia: review of official statistics, content analysis of trafficking reported by the Croatia media and a national survey conducted on a representative sample of adult population which gave estimates of public awareness of trafficking and a qualitative analysis of in-depth interviews with persons who were involved in the process of trafficking.
