Anti-Trafficking in Persons Project [through Solidarity Center]

The Solidarity Center is working to create a sustainable framework for preventing Nepalese, Filipino, and Sri Lankan migrant workers from becoming victims of labor trafficking in Qatar and improving the awareness and response to human trafficking in Qatar.

To accomplish this, the Solidarity Center is working with migrant labor advocates from these three source countries to identify and refer TIP victims to appropriate resources in Qatar.

Through this project, The Solidarity Center is building the capacity of Qatari-based organizations to provide protection and direct assistance to forced labor victims and working with the National Human Rights Committee as well as other Qatari agencies that have responsibility for preventing and responding to human trafficking.

In the three identified source countries, the Solidarity Center is also strengthening partnerships with allied organizations to prevent labor trafficking and advocate for changes in anti-trafficking legislation and enforcement of such laws.

This project will advance our understanding of TIP prevention strategies for source-destination countries by identifying lessons learned and best practices.
