Author: COMMITTEE ON THE RIGHTS OF THE CHILD
Document title: State reports - Concluding observations: Latvia
While the Committee recognizes the existence of legislative measures to address sexual exploitation and trafficking of children, including the national programme on the Prevention of Trafficking in Human Beings 2004-2008, and training of law enforcement personnel, the Committee is concerned that a general lack of awareness and economic hardship faced by many young people in Latvia increases their vulnerability.
