Not for Sale – Joining Forces Against Trafficking in Human Beings
The Council of Europe (GRETA monitoring mechanism) has evaluated the anti-trafficking action of almost 30 European countries. The aim of this conference is to take stock of the progress made so far and to discuss the challenges in the implementation of the Council of Europe Convention on Action against Human Trafficking.
