Human Trafficking in Southeastern Europe - Council of Europe Perspective

In this paper, the author analyzes human trafficking trends in Southeastern Europe from the perspective of the Council of Europe – the regional organization that, since its foundation, has been dedicated to the promotion and protection of the most fundamental human rights enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights. He focuses on a unique twofold monitoring/evaluation system setup under the Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings – Group of Experts on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings (GRETA) and Committee of the Parties. Trafficking trends and counter-trafficking mechanisms in selected Southeast European state parties (i.e., Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia, and Macedonia) have been examined from the perspective of the Convention that is built upon four pillars – prevention of trafficking, protection of victims, prosecution of perpetrators and partnership with civil society, as well as from the reports adopted by GRETA and recommendations issued to the state parties by the Committee of the Parties.
