Drug trafficking, arms trafficking and human trafficking are interrelated phenomena that seriously affect security and development in Latin America. With the objective of investigating the interactions between these factors and assessing their implications for public policy and regional security. A documentary analysis of government reports, academic studies and journalistic sources was conducted. The findings indicate that drug and arms trafficking fuel human trafficking, creating a cycle of violence and exploitation. Arms and narcotics control policies have been insufficient to address the root of the problem, revealing the need for a more integrated and multidimensional approach. In conclusion, the interconnection between these phenomena requires a coordinated response that includes international cooperation and the strengthening of local institutions, suggesting that policies should focus on prevention and victim protection to achieve a significant impact on the reduction of these crimes in the region.
