Actions of STOPNOW
RESEARCH ON HUMAN TRAFFICKING
•From July to
December 2002 research was conducted under the auspices of
KEDE by a scientific team headed
by Dr. Grigoris
Lazos. The aim of the study
was to document the scale of human trafficking and forced prostitution
in Greece, as it existed in the second half of 2002. Findings
and conclusions of the study reveal the magnitude of human trafficking
in Greece at this time, examining factors such as populations
of foreign adults and children prostituted by force, countries
of origin, means of financial and sexual exploitation etc. This
research project also provides an initial estimate as to what
type of assistance a trafficked person might expect on the part
of Governmental and non-Governmental agencies.
The results of the study will be published by KEDE and translations
will be subsequently available in a variety of languages.
•In order to assess the effectiveness of the STOPNOW awareness
campaign, a public opinion survey has been scheduled for the
latter half of 2003. The aim of the survey will be to identify
how Greek
society currently perceives human trafficking.
The results of the survey will be published by KEDE.
