- Summary
- The CAT project was started in December 2002 as a project of churches and church-related organisations from ten European countries, including countries of origin, transit and destination. During the first year of the project, which was financed by the EU STOP programme, the organisations involved visited one another in order to learn about the trafficking situation in different countries and become acquainted with the specific areas of work of the different organisations. In two workshops, the participating organisations dealt in more depth with selected themes. The structured discussions and analyses during these activities resulted in the identification of best practices observed by project members, and in autumn 2003, these were compiled and elaborated were compiled in the brochure “Action and Networking against Trafficking in Women: an action-oriented guide for awareness-raising and social assistance”2, so that they could be used by organisations or individuals confronted with the issue of trafficking. Feedback on the brochure, which has been translated into several languages), has been very positive. Experienced experts as well as non-specialised practitioners have expressed appreciation and praise for the brochure’s practical recommendations.
