Joint Call for Practices by the Migrant Protection Platform and the Network's Hub
For this year’s World Day Against Trafficking in Persons (WADiP), under the theme “Leave No Child Behind in the Fight Against Human Trafficking”, the Platform and the Migration Network Hub launched a Joint Call for Practices of programmes and policies relevant to Objective 10 of the Global Compact for Migration (Prevent, combat and eradicate trafficking in persons in the context of international migration).
Key Highlights from this Practice
The capacities of governmental officials and social organizations were strengthened through provision of targeted training and learning materials, which led to improved interventions in child trafficking cases. The training activities also led to several recommendations for further consideration, such as the creation of a specialized working group with state institutions on prevention of trafficking of children and adolescents.
