ZAŠTITA ŽRTAVA I PREVENCIJA TRGOVINE LJUDIMA U SRBIJI
PREVENTION OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING
Here we propose a set of measures of primary, secondary and tertiary prevention
that should be included into existing programmes as activities so as to
influence not only the consequences of human trafficking but the causes as
well. These would certainly result in reducing the size of the problem of human
trafficking and not just on alleviating the consequences:
Poverty, lack of opportunities and of
access to education, social and gender
inequalities, unemployment and
civil conflicts are among the main
factors to be addressed in developmin
a root-cause-centred-approach
that needs to add to the victim-centred
and law enforcement-centred
approaches.
2009 October Declaration on Trafficking
in Human Beings
• Conduct future surveys in the field
(instead of empyrical only) among
vulnerable social groups (refugees
and internally displaced persons in
collective centres, Roma communities,
asylum seekers, children in social
protection institutions, children living
and working in the street, women victims
of violence...). In addition to data
collection and better understanding
of the factors of risk, these surveys
would contribute to raising awareness
of the community about the phenomenon of human trafficking and the
related phenomena, particularly about child abuse and neglect, domestic violence
and their consequences;
• Examine the phenomenon of human trafficking from the aspect of
social inclusion and poverty reduction policies; include it into development of
these and the policies related to human rights, migrations, social protection,
labour, gender sensitive and anti-discrimination and specifically — supression
of violence; as well as in the implementation of policies through all the systems;
and finally – monitoring of implementation;
• With reference to the above, work on sensitization of professionals in
all the systems dealing with marginalised groups in order to dispel prejudices
and discrimination that are among the root causes of vulnerability;
• Conduct limited, specialised programmes/campaigns promoting alternatives
(models of social inclusion) and targeting vulnerable groups;
• With reference to the above — develop and implement innovative,
interactive and participatory programmes (e.g. forum theatre);
• Undertake field visits (outreach activities) to support potential victims;
• Enhance the capacity of the representatives of the above vulnerable
groups (target groups, in this case) to implement preventive measures (peer
education);
• Implement programmes for groups — perpetrators of violence, especially
the clients of services of victims (including specialised campaigns).
And more concretely:
• Since the survey shows the absolute majority of victims of trafficking
to have an incomplete primary eduation, insist on implementation of the
current mechanisms for prevention of drop-out from the mandatory primary
education, and introduce new ones;
• An additional feature among the vulnerability factors was noted in
