Anti-Slavery International is presenting the findings of its two-year
research study concerning measures taken to protect adult victims
of trafficking in 10 countries: Belgium, Colombia, Italy, Netherlands,
Nigeria, Poland, Thailand, Ukraine, United Kingdom and United States.
The report, Human Traffic, Human Rights: Redefining victim protection
looks at good and bad policies and practices, from the point of
view of prosecuting traffickers and protecting trafficked people's
human rights. It makes 45 recommendations covering areas such as
investigation and prosecution, residency status, protection from
reprisals, in-court evidentiary protection, support and assistance,
and legal redress and compensation.
There will be a panel of four speakers, a presentation about the
report by Anti-Slavery International, followed by a facilitated
discussion with participants present from each of
the 10 countries.
