Abstract: The study explored the effectiveness of Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) strategies in preventing human trafficking in Mchinji District, Malawi. Using a mixed-methods approach with 99 participants, it combined surveys, interviews and document analysis to gather comprehensive data. The sample represented diverse community members in Mchinji District, including youth, women, men, the elderly and individuals with disabilities. The Fischer formula guided sample selection. Questionnaires and interview schedules facilitated data collection. While over half (55.5%) had heard of human trafficking, nearly half lacked a clear understanding, highlighting an awareness gap. Existing interventions, primarily disseminated through community channels, reached some were informative, but many (36.7%) perceived them ineffective, this underscores the need for broader reach, improved message clarity, and culturally relevant approaches. The study identified a strong preference for community driven strategies, including intensifies awareness campaigns in Chichewa, collaboration among stakeholder, and diverse communication channels. This emphasizes the importance of moving beyond simple information dissemination and actively engaging communities through culturally appropriate messaging partnerships. Recommendations include increase allocation of funds and resources, expanding reach, tailoring messages, building trust, addressing root causes like poverty and employing a multi-pronged approach combining awareness, victim support, and law enforcement efforts. Regula monitoring and adaptation based on feedback are crucial for ensuring interventions remain relevant and empower communities to effectively prevent human trafficking
