Summary
15 years La Strada: Cooperative, Constructive and Critical

In the 15 years of its existence, the La Strada International network has witnessed the enlargement of the European Union, changes in labour migration routes, the growth and decline of economies in Europe, global economical highs and lows, feminisation of poverty and migration, changing opinions on prostitution, awareness of the position of minority groups in societies, increased discrimination and racism, the opening of borders and the limiting of labour migration opportunities. All of these developments have had their influence on the phenomenon of trafficking in human beings and therefore on the work of LSI and the individual members. The work of LSI is based on the principles of universal human rights - equality, non-discrimination, participation, empowerment, accountability and transparency.
