The Preventing and Combating Trafficking in Persons: lessons from the SADC Region booklet documents lessons learnt on trafficking in persons across the SADC region, in line with the implementation of the 10 Year SADC Strategic Plan of Action on Combating Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children (2009-2019). By sharing these lessons, it is anticipated that this will help to improve the regional response to the abhorrent crime of trafficking in persons. This booklet was produced with support from the European Union through the Regional Political Cooperation (RPC) Programme of the SADC Secretariat.
