Target groups

Primary target group:

Victims of Trafficking in human beings - women, men and children

Secondary target group:

NGOs active in the field of anti-trafficking; IOM;  staff of the shelters

Activities

By ensuring direct assistance to VoTs, the project aims to strengthen the capacity of the key actors in the national referral mechanism, thus ensuring an overall reduction in the risk of re-trafficking.

The first outcome will be achieved through increased comprehensive and tailor-made rehabilitation assistance provided to Romanian VoTs (men, women and children), identified at national and international level.

The second outcome will be realized with services of return and reintegration assistance provided to victims and activities that will strengthen the understanding of NRM/TRM and VoTs assistance mechanisms among ANITP local structures, Consulates, and other counterparts in Romania and in countries of destination. Workshops, networking events, transfer of good practices, counter-trafficking directory and NRM info-sheets will be realized as indirect interventions.

  • Support provided to 102 victims of human trafficking
  • National and Transnational Referral Mechanism (NRMITRM) strengthened through improved coordination of return cases with the governmental and non-governmental structures and awareness raising on VoT protection and assistance available amongst actors ot the NRM/TRM.
