Topic
The third Supplementary Human Dimension Meeting of 2022 will provide a forum to discuss how to better protect the rights of victims of human trafficking.
The first session will focus on the rights of child trafficking victims and the specific challenges faced by these most vulnerable of targets.
The second session will centre on means of countering human trafficking in the context of armed conflict.
Against the background of the rapid growth of the use of online platforms to recruit, groom and exploit victims, the third and final working session will discuss how to combat human trafficking in cyberspace.
