Description

The Survey is an overview of the status of current efforts to implement the anti-trafficking commitments and recommended actions to prevent and combat trafficking in human beings across the OSCE region. The added value of the survey is long-term, since it serves as a baseline against which progress will be measured in three to four years, when the survey will be repeated.

The survey is focusing on the prevention of trafficking in human beings, the prosecution of trafficking crimes, as well as the protection of victims of trafficking. As such, it was not intended to cover all areas of the OSCE Action Plan to Combat Trafficking in Human Beings and its 2013 Addendum. Rather, the survey emphasizes those areas in the response to trafficking in human beings about which information is currently limited.

The supply chains topic is being covered in section “Prevention of Trafficking in Human Beings”, in particular in sub-sections on identifying and addressing trafficking in human beings for labour exploitation, government and private sector procurement and international labour recruitment and placement.
