Priorities
The protection of victims of trafficking is at the heart of all policies and measures to fight this phenomenon. Conventionally, the main elements of a proactive policy in terms of victim protection are considered to be the following: the development of tools for the identification, orientation and referral of victims (national or foreign), the dissemination of norms and standards of care, the establishment of temporary reception structures, the production of mappings of the actors, the strengthening of local relays, the establishment of assistance and rehabilitation funds and the production of consolidated statistics. All of the countries covered by the project have adopted measures of this type, aimed primarily at child victims, women and nationals, but their degree of formalisation and application remains heterogeneous and generally insufficient to meet the needs observed.
(Ad) Our Premium Donor Search feature works like a mini-search engine. As soon as you define the search criteria and click on search, it scans the internet for the best possible matches of donor agencies based according to your interest and presents a list that you need. Learn more.
In close collaboration with Nigerian authorities concerned, first and foremost the NAPTIP, the project intends to contribute to the institutionalization and standardization of practices for the care of victims identified and potential victims by:
Strengthening financial mechanisms for victims assistance,
Supporting the operationalisation of systems for the identification, referral and care of victims (integrated referral systems, with a specific attention to gender)
Developing shelter options adapted to the needs of each category of victims
Improving and diversifying the range of assistance services to meet the needs of victims.
