Protection of victims of human trafficking, capacity building and support to key social partners
The PROCAP project aspires to contribute to the fight against human trafficking for third-country nationals (TCNs) in Greece.
Greece is one of the main entry points for asylum seekers and refugees in Europe. Populations affected by displacement and people fleeing persecution are particularly at risk of human trafficking. Although the EU Anti-Trafficking Directive establishes a robust system for assisting and supporting victims, Greece faces challenges with access to justice and the quality of support for victims and their families. Additionally, the prolonged armed conflict in Ukraine has resulted in mass displacement, with people seeking refuge in neighboring countries. Despite the establishment of a system guaranteeing temporary protection for the displaced population, security, exploitation, and abuse risks remain high, especially for women and children.
