%X This research note describes different gatekeepers to quantitative data on victims of human trafficking in Europe. It explores how the researcher-gatekeeper relationship must be negotiated, and in particular, explicates how the notion of goodwill' might help foster a research relationship and collaboration. I identify that goodwill might be measured as a continuum, and argue that it can be fostered but at other times is constrained by factors outside of the researchers' control. I conclude that goodwill is an important resource to help negotiate access with gatekeepers to hard-to-reach data.<p />
