On 30-31 October 2019, the Academy of Justice in cooperation with the European Organization for Public Law (ELPO) project held a two-day workshop on: “Combating trafficking in human beings”.
The purpose of this workshop was to increase the professional capacities of the participants in the proper implementation of the legislation in force and to strengthen the cooperation between other relevant institutions for the successful fight against this phenomenon.
During this workshop were treated legal aspects of human trafficking, understanding the victim and the perspectives of the victim. Special attention was paid to the protection of the victim before and during the criminal process, support, rehabilitation and reintegration of the victim in the society. During this workshop through practical cases it was pointed out that trafficking in human beings is a widespread and more profitable phenomenon of organized crime, reaching the same dimensions as drug and weapons trafficking. Therefore, participants were required to understand correctly the elements of the offense of trafficking in human beings and to know the forms of exploitation of victims of human trafficking in order to have results in combating these offenses.
Beneficiaries of this workshop were judges, prosecutors and judicial and prosecutorial administrative staff from all regions of Kosovo.
