Representatives from the AAI, UNODC, YHRI, HTITI will present their joint efforts on promoting awareness of human trafficking among flight crew, police, military and civil society, as an innovative way to use education as a tool to effectively reduce crime and promote efforts to prevent crimes. Speakers will showcase the concrete results of their partnership so far implemented in many countries that can be tailored to reach a wider audience.
Panelists will present ways to detect signs of human trafficking, as well as how to react appropriately to prevent serious crimes from happening right within one’s sphere of influence. Following that they will also elaborate and discuss how similar programs can be implemented throughout other states and within a larger global alliance or public-private partnership.
The public is invited to ask questions and to exchange ideas.
