Abstract
Organ transplant surgery has saved countless lives since its arrival in the 1950s. As the techniques and technologies used in transplant medical improvement, there are increasing positive outcomes for donors and recipients. However, the need for this treatment far surpasses organ accessibility. The critical requirement for organ transplant a medical procedure has brought about a rewarding, transnational criminal endeavor that enables organ seekers to purchase organs from donors. While organ trafficking is an internationally recognized problem, and efforts to prevent and restrict it have had limited success, this underground crime is a widespread problem in many parts of the world. Part of the challenge is that many countries, including Canada, do not explicitly ban travel abroad for illegally conducted organ transplant surgery. So far, legislative efforts to fortify government laws identifying with organ trafficking in Canada have been unsuccessful. This paper has discussed about the trafficking of human organs at international level.
