Summary

The purpose of the Regional Initiative: Austria and Neighbouring Countries - Preventing and Combating all Forms of Trafficking in Women: Improving Transnational Coordination and Cooperation; Developing and Strengthening Networks and Partnerships with Third Countries, is to enhance the practical implementation of established norms, instruments and existing good practices within a smaller and thus potentially more manageable and effective group, supporting and complementing the implementation of the larger new European anti-trafficking framework. By enhancing regional understanding of and knowledge about human trafficking in all its forms and improving regional cooperation, coordination and experience exchange, the Initiative can contribute to more effectively preventing and combating trafficking in human beings (THB) for all forms of exploitation.
