Strengthening of
comprehensive anti-trafficking responses in
Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia
The ‘Strengthening of
comprehensive anti-trafficking responses in Armenia,
Azerbaijan, and Georgia’ Project seeks to address
reduction of all forms of trafficking in human
beings through capacity building and provision of
protection and assistance to actual and potential
victims.
In more specific terms, the
project seeks to accomplish the following
objectives:
to support the development
the national institutional framework in the
respective countries to address trafficking in
persons and their practical implementation
including victim-centred research, national
action plan evaluation and monitoring
mechanisms;
to support prevention of
trafficking in persons and irregular migration
through labour market interventions and by
informing potential migrants on the risk of
irregular migration and the possibilities of
legal migration;
assist the respective
Governments to detect, investigate and prosecute
criminal activities pertinent to trafficking in
persons;
improve identification,
referral, protection and assistance including
reintegration of victims.
The International Labour
Organization, as the leading agency, implements this
two-year project in close cooperation with its
partners, the International Centre for Migration
Policy Development, the International Organization
for Migration and the Organization for Security and
Co-operation in Europe.
The project is financed by the European Union.

persons”.
