To identify something means to recognize or establish its identity. This can involve comparing it to a known standard or reference, or using various clues or characteristics to determine what it is.

Identifying something can also involve assigning it a label or category, such as a particular type or class. The process of identification can be important for providing information, for making decisions, or for understanding the world around us.

I knew about the buyers, the trade, and to what extent traffickers would go in order to avoid law enforcement. I had learned of policing tactics, correctional strategies, and criminological theories that explained what would influence an individual to engage in an illegitimate business.
I was a young, recent law graduate when I first experienced the horrors of human trafficking. It was in 1998. I was working for a human rights NGO and attending a workshop in South Africa.
