Baltic Sea Region Comprehensive Assistance to Children Victims of Trafficking BSR CACVT

19.07.2006 | Lars Lööf (CBSS)

The Working Group for Cooperation on Children at Risk will for two years implement a training programme for professionals working with assistance to children that have been trafficked, or that are unaccompanied. The programme has received generous support by the EU through the Daphne programme, Save the Children Sweden and the Oak Foundation.

Through discussions with experts in the area of rehabilitation and support to children victims of exploitation and violence, the network of child experts in the cooperation on children at risk in the Baltic Sea Region have identified a number of issues that should be thoroughly deliberated in this international training programme in order to assist national programmes and projects of assistance for children victims of trafficking. In all contacts it has become increasingly clear that even if there are expertise on some of the issues at hand when assisting children and young persons exploited through trafficking, the knowledge on how to assist these in a comprehensive way is just not there. Whatever assistance will be implemented in the different countries, the professionals involved will need international training and regional co-operation. The training consists of five two day seminars. Please see the attached documents in English and in Russian for a full description of the training.
