"Commitment is what transforms a promise into reality. It is the words that speak boldly of your intentions and the actions that speak louder than words. It is making the time when there is none. It is coming through time after time, year after year. Commitment is the stuff character is made of, the power to change the face of things. It is the triumph of integrity over skepticism".

 

~Abraham Lincoln

 

 

 
 

 

 

HOST AN EVENT ON HUMAN TRAFFICKING

Helping victims of human trafficking is as simple as talking to a friend. Host an event and invite the community to discuss the exploitation of human beings. At this campaign, we are eager to spread the word, and we would like to talk at any community event about human trafficking and victim identification.

OSCE Combating HT

OSCE Combating human trafficking
Human trafficking affects virtually all OSCE states, either as countries of origin or destination. This modern form of slavery is an affront to human dignity, often involving psychological terror and physical violence. Human trafficking engages issues of human rights and rule of law, of law enforcement and crime control, of inequality and discrimination, of corruption, economic deprivation and migration.

As such, human trafficking affects virtually all OSCE participating States as countries of origin, transit or destination. This modern form of slavery is an affront to human dignity, often involving psychological terror and physical violence. The OSCE addresses many issues relevant to human trafficking: human rights and rule of law; corruption and crime control; discrimination and inequality; economic, labour, and migration policies. 

The OSCE Action Plan to Combat Trafficking in Human Beings provides the framework for OSCE activities in support of the anti-trafficking efforts of OSCE participating States. It contains core recommendations for action at the national level, known as the “3 Ps”:

  • Prevention, including awareness-raising and addressing root causes;
  • Prosecution, including investigation and co-operation with international law enforcement; and
  • Protection of victims’ rights, including assistance and compensation.
