Asunto: 14 The update includes 7 new documents dealing with the Strategic Information Response Network (SIREN), a new UNIAP-supported initiative


Dear friends and colleagues

We have again updated the digital library http://www.childtrafficking.com  - a South Asia-based website supported by many activists around the globe. All forms of trafficking are addressed, including trafficking for labor purposes. The website focuses on children, and includes the latest information on strategies for trafficking prevention, as well as for the rehabilitation and reintegration of victims of trafficking. The digital library http://www.childtrafficking.com  focuses on the outcomes of trafficking, such as the use of forced labor or slavery like practices, no matter how people arrive in these conditions.

The update includes 7 new documents dealing with the Strategic Information Response Network (SIREN), a new UNIAP-supported initiative intended to deliver high quality, responsive, and up-to-date data and analysis on cutting edge issues within the human trafficking sector.

WHAT IS SIREN?
The Strategic Information Response Network (SIREN) is a new UNIAP-supported initiative intended to deliver high quality, responsive, and up-to-date data and analysis on cutting edge issues within the human trafficking sector. It is aimed at key stakeholders in the Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS) – government and non-government – in order to inform and encourage their attention and action on the target issue.  SIREN aims to convey information to the human counter-trafficking sector in a variety of different forms: briefing reports, maps, data sheets, and discussion forums and debates, to name a few. Research, validation, and analysis will be conducted in the field, by community-based organizations, national and international agencies, and/or UNIAP itself. The goal is to bring real knowledge and context on real priority issues from the grassroots to the national and regional levels, and vice versa.

The Strategic Information Response Network (SIREN) is a new UNIAP-supported initiative intended to deliver high quality, responsive, and up-to-date data and analysis on cutting edge issues within the human trafficking sector. http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=2&CID=d2ddea18f00665ce8623e36bd4e3c7c5|545b


SIREN (2007). What do lawyers require to prosecute trafficking and slavery in Thailand? Guidelines from lawyers to front-line agencies. 4 p. In August 2007, the Human Rights Development Foundation brought together a working group of Thai lawyers who have pursued cases of severe labour exploitation and trafficking.  The discussion focused on the lessons they have learned in trying to achieve justice in such cases, prior to the adoption of a comprehensive anti-trafficking act in Thailand.  This report, from the lawyers, seeks to provide front-line NGOs and authorities with a better understanding of criminal justice procedure and how these groups can work together to more successfully prosecute traffickers, exploiters and enslavers. http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=5&CID=37a749d808e46495a8da1e5352d03cae|525d5e


SIREN (2008). Statistical Methods for Estimating the Number of Trafficking Victims. 8 p. "In 2007, UNIAP launched a competition in which NGOs, academics, and government and non-government research institutions were invited to submit proposals for innovative, rigorous methodologies to estimate the numbers of trafficking victims in a given geographic area and/or industry. This report outlines the process of the UNIAP Trafficking Estimates Initiative, then presents the top three methodologies in order of merit, with the three honorable mentions following in alphabetical order." http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=2&CID=7cbbc409ec990f19c78c75bd1e06f215|5458

SIREN (2007). Counter-Trafficking Databases in Cambodia. 8 p. In Cambodia, at least nine government ministries and fifteen government departments deal with aspects of trafficking. Within these, IOM has identified seven "trafficking-relevant" information systems operating in four ministries, and of these, there are five that meet the criteria of handling primary data on human trafficking cases, flows, and risk factors. http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=2&CID=d2ddea18f00665ce8623e36bd4e3c7c5|545b

SIREN (2007). Targeting Endemic Vulnerability Factors to Human Trafficking. 8 p. "What makes a person or community vulnerable to human trafficking?  Common assumptions are that poverty and a lack of education are primary factors, but evidence often proves otherwise.   In different locales, different factors increase the risk of being trafficked.  Evidence-based programming requires an understanding of the vulnerability factors, verified through research with individuals and communities at risk, to design appropriate interventions and achieve measurable positive impact in preventing trafficking and risky migration.  This SIREN report, written by UNIAP, describes field methods that can be used to target vulnerability factors and design more appropriate and effective trafficking prevention programs." http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?CID=ad61ab143223efbc24c7d2583be69251|545c

"In April 2007, a group of ten men and one boy from Kandal province (ranging from 15 to 33 years in age) were recruited for work on fishing boats in Thailand by a local informal broker in their district. In their village in Sa-ang district, there are few livelihood alternatives to fishing for young men." http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=16&CID=73278a4a86960eeb576a8fd4c9ec6997|52595f
