Ena Lucia MariÂaÂca Pacheco, LLM, Human secuÂriÂty expert speÂcialÂized in child sexÂuÂal abuse, exploitaÂtion, and trafÂfickÂing. TrainÂer, pubÂlished researcher and interÂnaÂtionÂal speakÂer at interÂnaÂtionÂal conÂferÂences, the UnitÂed Nations and INTERPOL. She curÂrentÂly works at INTERPOL in the OrgaÂnized and EmergÂing Crime DirecÂtorate. Bachelor’s degrees from the UniÂverÂsiÂty of Ottawa, CanaÂda, and a masÂter’s degree in human secuÂriÂty from RoyÂal Roads UniÂverÂsiÂty, CanaÂda. For over a decade, she has worked with the GovÂernÂment of CanaÂda, non-govÂernÂmenÂtal orgaÂniÂzaÂtions, interÂnaÂtionÂal orgaÂniÂzaÂtions, INTERPOL, law enforceÂment, and surÂvivors on research, polÂiÂcy writÂing, human rights advoÂcaÂcy work, and globÂal projects focused on supÂportÂing vicÂtims and surÂvivors. Ena Lucia has also assistÂed vulÂnerÂaÂble comÂmuÂniÂties and vicÂtims of human trafÂfickÂing as a volÂunÂteer with NGOs in trafÂfickÂing hotspots. DurÂing her time workÂing at CanaÂdiÂan ParÂliaÂment, Ena Lucia built a dataÂbase to track human trafÂfickÂing casÂes and to proÂvide supÂportÂing data for Bill C‑310, a piece of legÂisÂlaÂtion that enhanced the defÂiÂnÂiÂtion of exploitaÂtion in the crimÂiÂnal offense of human trafÂfickÂing. Using inforÂmaÂtion from this dataÂbase, Bill C‑310 also enabled the prosÂeÂcuÂtion of CanaÂdiÂans who comÂmitÂted crimes against chilÂdren and human trafÂfickÂing offensÂes outÂside of Canada’s borÂders. Ena LuciÂa’s research was also used to supÂport CanaÂdiÂan LegÂisÂlaÂtion, An Act to Amend the CrimÂiÂnal Code (TrafÂfickÂing in PerÂsons) before the StandÂing ComÂmitÂtee on JusÂtice and Human Rights. She is also a pubÂlished researcher, and her work can be found in the Child Abuse and Neglect JourÂnal speÂcial ediÂtion on boys. Ena Lucia co-led the first interÂnaÂtionÂal conÂferÂence on vioÂlence against men and boys
