OUR REPORT

Our call for evidence is now closed. We would like to thank the wide range of stakeholders that contributed to this monitoring exercise. Our report will be available from this webpage in June 2010.

The Anti-Trafficking Monitoring Group was formed in May 2009 and works according to a human rights approach to protect the well-being and best interests of trafficked persons.

This coalition also works closely with the Anti-Trafficking Legal Project (ATLeP). 

This work is financed through grants from Comic Relief & City Parochial Foundation.
 

 

Members formed this coalition through a common interest in achieving the following initial goals:

• To carry out a robust and independent collection, analysis and reporting of evidence regarding the implementation of Council of Europe’s Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings in the UK; in particular the impact this has on trafficked persons.
  
  
• To publish a report in June 2010, which will be made publicly available and provide a comprehensive analysis of the policies and practical responses of both governmental and non-governmental agencies across the UK.
  
  
• To submit this report to the independent and impartial Group of Experts on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings (GRETA).
  
  
• To identify a basic model for effective shadow monitoring of the implementation of ECAT.
  
  
• To increase the effectiveness of Members’ work in ensuring that trafficked persons can access their human rights.
