Thanks for the support. These licensed employers created and empowered by the law of the state to recruit and transport our bro &sis for #homegrownslavery are what we call Domestic Organised Criminal gangs. We are disrupting their activities.

Ireland's system for identification of victims of #ChildTrafficking is child-blind, we 'see' far fewer victims than our neighbours. @OCO_ireland says robust screening tools & procedures are needed to identify & protect. #workinprogress #EndChildTrafficking #LeaveNoChildBehind💙

Shocked to read that our colleague Aké Ache of @migrantsatwork, modern slavery expert & education contributor @MaynoothUni, has been subjected to death threats due to his work to support exploited workers. Swift & thorough action & investigation is vital. theguardian.com/world/articl…

Ireland's system for identification of victims of #ChildTrafficking is child-blind, we 'see' far fewer victims than our neighbours. GRETA urges us to step up efforts to combat child trafficking. #workinprogress #EndChildTrafficking #LeaveNoChildBehind💙

A child cannot consent to being exploitation, so #ChildTrafficking looks different to #HumanTrafficking. @UNChildRights1 recommended that we have an NRM for child victims. #workinprogress #EndChildTrafficking #LeaveNoChildBehind💙

We're not seeing the full picture of #ChildTrafficking in Ireland. EU GRETA says we need to see the risks for #IrishChildren & #EUChildren as well as unaccompanied/separated children seeking international protection. #workinprogress #EndChildTrafficking #LeaveNoChildBehind💙

This year has seen significant advances in Irish policy & legislation to counter #HumanTrafficking in Ireland, but much remains to be done to address #ChildTrafficking. #WorkInProgress #LeaveNoChildBehind 💙 #EndHumanTrafficking #WorldDayAgainstTraffickinginPersons2024
