Anti-Trafficking in Persons Project [through International Organisation for Migration]

IOM will continue to collaborate with the Daywalka Foundation to increase capacity of the Bangladesh Thematic Group (with representatives from government ministries, police, other international organizations, and NGOs working to combat trafficking in persons) by ramping up activities of the Women/Children's Security Resource Center in Dhaka.

The Thematic group and Center will undertake activities including: public awareness among potential migrants about safe migration and trafficking with the distribution of easy-to-read pamphlets, posts, group orientation, targeted mass media, school-based programs, and community workshops. In addition, the Thematic Group and Center will work to address demand factors driving trafficking.

IOM and Daywalka will conduct outreach to female law enforcement officers to increase their skills in assisting with trafficking cases.
