Toolkit to Combat Trafficking in Persons.

At the third session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime and its Protocols (Vienna, 9-18 October 2006), various requests were made of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) as the secretariat of the Conference of the Parties. Among them was to develop guidelines and collect and disseminate of successful practice with respect to:
– Victim identification
– Investigation of offences
– Victim assistance and repatriation
– Training and capacity-building
– Awareness-raising strategies and campaigns
While this Toolkit is not offered in direct fulfilment of those requests, it has been drafted with the Office’s strong commitment to comply with them in mind. The present edition updates and expands the version of the Toolkit published in 2006
