The National Authority for Combating Trafficking in Persons (INLTP) and the Council of Europe are pleased to invite you to the Launch event of the National Referral Mechanism for Victims of Trafficking in Persons (MNO) in Tunisia, which will be held on December 15 and 16, 2021. These two days will be an opportunity to encourage cross-exchange and international feedback on similar referral mechanisms in other countries, as well as workshops.
Tunisia is indeed considered the first country in the Middle East and North Africa to launch such a National Referral Mechanism. This launch marks the culmination of several years of co-operation between the Tunisian authorities and the Council of Europe aimed at creating a global system facilitating the identification and referral of victims to support services to ensure appropriate and effective protection and support.La mise en place de cette initiative a bénéficié du support technique et financier du Projet d’Appui aux Instances Indépendantes en Tunisie PAII-T, porté conjointement par l’Union européenne et le Conseil de l’Europe.
