If these stats aren’t depressing enough, the OSCE also says that prosecutions of trafficking cases have been at a standstill since 2001.
In the latest edition of ISN Podcasts, OSCE Special Representative and Co-ordinator for Combating Trafficking in Human Beings Eva Biaudet discusses how the Organization is tackling trafficking, our theme for this week, and the role the EU should play.
- The Somaly Mam Foundation is highlighted in our IR Directory, along with Acting for Women in Distressing Situations (ASEFIP).
- We’re also featuring three partners involved in the fight against human trafficking: Special Action Programme to Combat Forced Labour (SAP-FL), Cimera and of course the OSCE.

One reply on “ISN Weekly Theme: Human Trafficking”
I just came across a recent publication on the role of the security sector in combating human trafficking. It provides a good overview of issues, actors and cooperation in the field. The paper is published by the Austrian Defense Academy and will be in the ISN digital library soon; in the mean time, you can download it here.
