Today is World Day Against Trafficking in Persons 🌍 ICMPD emphasises the importance of cooperative frameworks that promote cross-border and multi-agency collaboration to combat the trafficking of human beings (THB) and ensure victim protection. Migrants on the move and those seeking refuge, including women and children, are particularly vulnerable to criminal syndicates and human traffickers. 📌 An efficient anti-trafficking response requires evidence-based knowledge and systematic ongoing monitoring and evaluation. 📌 Research, data collection and analysis are crucial to fostering situational awareness, understanding trends, and addressing knowledge gaps and implementation challenges. For over 20 years, ICMPD has provided expertise to combat THB by guiding stakeholders toward coordinated national and regional actions in policy and legislation, capacity building, victim protection, and gathering and analysing trafficking-related data. As part of our ongoing initiatives, we recently published: 📚 The HEROES Manual for Early Identification of Potential Victims of Trafficking in Human Beings (THB), Child Sexual Abuse and Child Sexual Exploitation (CSA/E): - The Manual is a practical tool for early identification of potential victims of trafficking in human beings (THB) and child sexual abuse or exploitation (CSA/E). - Designed for frontline responders to identify potential and actual victims of THB and/or CSA/E and refer them to relevant support services. - Includes tailored, sector-specific indicators for identifying potential THB and CSA/E victims in four selected countries: Bangladesh, Colombia, Spain, and the UK. 🔗 Download the manual at: https://lnkd.in/du8P2cKF 🔗 Discover more about the manual at: https://lnkd.in/dzTQF7yy 🔗 Explore the HEROES project work and activities at: https://heroes-fct.eu/ #WorldDayAgainstTraffickinginPersons #Migration #THB #EndHumanTraffficking #HumanTraffficking #LeaveNoChildBehind #Bangladesh #Colombia #Spain #UK Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) Fundación Renacer International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children Trilateral Research Centre for Women and Children Studies (CWCS) ICMPD_THB ICMPD Policy & Research HEROES Project
