Dr Carrie Pemberton Ford

Human Trafficking and Intercultural Expert - Expert Witness and Cultural Mediation

Dr Carrie Pemberton Ford works in the area of immigration, asylum protection and identification of human trafficking cases, and has done so for the last 20 years. She is an expert in cross cultural diversity, victimology, rights protection, human-trafficking recruitment, and grooming, along with the areas of violence against women, coercive control, sexual exploitation, harmful cultural practices (Voodoo rights, FGM, Child Marriage) and recently extending her expertise into drug trafficking and County Lines.

She is a Partner in IbixInsight LLB and a Director of the Cambridge Centre for Applied Research in Human Trafficking (CCARHT), an international network of experts and practitioners in counter-trafficking, hosting an annual symposium which thematically explores  merging areas of concern in the context of Human Trafficking.

She is the founder of Gender Wise, a Community Interest Company which is developing fresh strategies to protect women from the harm they experience when subjected to any form of violence and abuse in their domestic space.

Carrie can act as a mediator in any of these areas, provide a bespoke service as an expert witness in the Family and Criminal Courts, as well as assisting preparation prosecution briefs for cases to be brought to the International Criminal Court in the Hague.
