Abstract
This study uses key socioeconomic factors, which increase the risk of trafficking as identified in international literature.1 Research aimed to determine if a deviation in vulnerabilities exists between the IDP population and the overall population of Georgia. The study analyzed results of the research - which attempted to determine specific risk factors faced by displaced populations, including inadequate housing, lack of economic opportunity, and willingness to migrate. The research attempted to extrapolate trends on IDP vulnerabilities, which might be applied to other displaced populations not only in Georgia but worldwide.
