Overview

This day established by the UN reinforces the importance of joining forces against one of the most serious human rights violations today. Millions of people around the world, including women, children and men, are victims of this crime, which involves exploitation, forced labor, organ trafficking and other forms of abuse and exploitation. It is important to differentiate legitimate migration situations, such as refugees, people welcomed for humanitarian reasons or migrants in search of better living conditions, from situations that may indicate a risk of human trafficking. Signs of trafficking include: restriction of freedom, documents withheld by third parties, control of communication, threats, violence or misleading promises of work, study or housing. Reporting suspected cases, supporting public policies and finding out about warning signs are fundamental attitudes to breaking the cycle of violence and guaranteeing the dignity and rights of all people.
