World Day Against Trafficking in Persons 🌍 Today, ICMPD highlights the importance of cross-regional migration dialogues and whole-of-route cooperation, bringing together countries of origin, transit, and destination for joint action.
📌 A whole-of-route approach strengthens knowledge sharing, coordination, law enforcement cooperation, and harmonised legal and policy frameworks.
📌 Preventing trafficking requires providing migrants with reliable information on safe and legal migration pathways, enabling them to make safer, informed choices and reduce vulnerability.
