- Summary
- This Guide on Trafficking in Women is the
product of three years of work of women who have escaped trafficking. Through an
innovative and empowering research exercise, victims of trafficking became
agents of analysis and change. Instead of focusing on the tragic side of their
experience, they shared among themselves how they managed to escape from trafficking and
rebuild their lives. They discussed the existing support mechanisms; they
scrutinized the core policy instruments and they eventually summarized their own
experience and recommendations in this publication.
The Guide on Trafficking in Women has been produced by Border Woman, a network of women who have managed to come out from trafficking. It is a document written by trafficking survivors for trafficking victims, as well as for policymakers and social and institutional agents concerned with preventing and combating trafficking.
The guide is available in Spanish, English and French.
