8 APPENDIX A Context of the Project Trafficking in Human Beings is a severe form of exploitation and violence primarily affecting women and girls. Based on data collected by the EU Commission, there has been an 18% increase in the total number of victims of human trafficking between 2008 and 2009 with 68% accounted for by women and 12% by girls. Anti-human trafficking legislation, policies and actions at national and EU level have sought to address this issue through the development of a robust framework of rights and entitlements for the protection of victims of human trafficking. However, such protection measures may be undermined if; persons vulnerable to trafficking are unaware of their rights or how to access them, there is a lack of awareness amongst sex buyers of the potential harm caused by the demand for sexual services provided by persons vulnerable to human trafficking, professionals likely to come into contact with trafficked persons are unable to recognise the indicators of human trafficking and are unsure of what action to take if they encounter a victim of human trafficking. The evolution of sex trafficking from an on-street to an off-street internet based model of exploitation has meant that it has become increasingly difficult for the anti-human trafficking actors, whether State Agencies and/or NGOs, to access these vulnerable persons. Given their increased isolation such persons are far less likely to be aware of their rights and are therefore also far less likely to be able to access supports and protections available to victims of human trafficking. This is reflected in the small, but notable, reduction in the number of persons being identified by State authorities and NGOs in the 2011 and 2012 Annual Reports of the Anti-Human Trafficking Unit and in the multidisciplinary trafficking in human beings working group structures put in place as part of Ireland s National Referral Mechanism. Conversely, victims/potential victims of human trafficking are likely to encounter persons seeking to purchase sexual services. However such persons may have limited awareness of sex trafficking and about the damage caused by their behaviour in terms of the violence and exploitation of women. Professionals, working for State organisations, such as social workers may happen upon victims/potential victims of human trafficking during the course of
9 their duties. However such persons may lack the appropriate training to recognise the indictors of trafficking or know what to do when they encounter a person who they believe to be trafficked. It is vital that awareness be raised amongst the three aforementioned groups in order to help ensure that victims have access to rights and supports, that the purchasers of sex desist from behaviour harmful to women and girls and that professionals likely to come into contact with victims can recognise the indicators of human trafficking and are able to refer victims to the appropriate providers of anti-trafficking services. General and Specific Objectives of the Project General objectives The purpose of the project is to contribute to efforts to combat the trafficking of women and girls through the following means; increasing access among hard to reach victims/potential victims of human trafficking, especially women and girls to supports available to them and to equip such persons with sufficient information to allow them to assert their rights guaranteed under national and EU law, encouraging zero tolerance of this form of violence against women and girls by raising awareness of the harms caused by the demand for sexual services amongst potential buyers of sex, raising greater awareness of the indicators of human trafficking among professions likely to encounter victims/potential victims of human trafficking and setting out the appropriate course of action to be taken should they encounter a victim of human trafficking. Specific objectives Increase access by anti-trafficking actors to hard to reach victims/potential victims of human trafficking, especially women and girls through the development an innovative and focused awareness raising approach to informing victims/potential victim of human trafficking, especially women and girls, in difficult to reach circumstances of their rights and of the supports available to them. Increase the levels of service used by hard to reach victims/potential victims of human trafficking, especially women and girls, through encouraging such persons to come forward and avail of the existing supports through targeted communications activities utilising these newly developed approaches. Help foster an atmosphere of zero tolerance amongst males engaging in behaviour that places women and girls in danger of being exploited and coerced by human traffickers through developing and implementing
10 awareness raising approaches targeted at the buyers of sex, informing them of the exploitation and violence towards victims/potential victims of human trafficking, especially women and girls, that is caused by the demand for sexual services. Increase the likelihood that professionals likely to encounter victims/potential victims of human trafficking will successfully recognise victims/potential victims of human trafficking in the course of their work through the development of training materials including software applications. Increase the number of referrals of victims/potential victims of human trafficking by professionals to the appropriate anti-human trafficking actors for the purpose of accessing their rights and the available supports on foot of having received anti-human trafficking training. Expected Results Higher levels of access to hard to reach victims/potential victims of human trafficking. Increased understanding of the make-up of these hard to reach groups in terms of demographics. Increased understanding of the barriers to services encountered by such persons. Increased levels of understanding among victims/potential victims of human trafficking of the avenues for reporting and seeking support and redress. Increased levels of services used as a result of the awareness raising activities. Decreased tolerance amongst males for behaviour contributing to the exploitation of and violence against women and girls. Increases in the number of victims of human trafficking recognised and referred by professionals likely to encounter victims/potential victims of human trafficking. Development of models of best practice in terms of training and awareness raising. Increased levels of cooperation between State Organisations and NGOs, between NGOs amongst each other on the island of Ireland.
11 Increased interaction between the State Organisations, NGOs in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland and academic and EU experts on the issue of human trafficking, especially the exploitation of and violence against women and girls. Development of a range of innovative awareness raising and training approaches, including software applications, aimed a numerous different actors which can be easily replicated in other EU Member States.
