2 . Towards a Pan- European Monitoring System on THB “Pan-EU THB MoSy ”

1. 2. Towards a Pan- European Monitoring System on THB “Pan-EU THB MoSy” Project submitted to the targeted call for proposals: “Prevention And Fight Against Crime - Trafficking in Human beings” EC- DG Home Affairs

2. Pan-European Monitoring System of THB Project duration: 24 months Participating Countries in the Pilot Project: Portugal Cyprus Austria Bulgaria (Brazil) Advisory Board: EUROPOL OSCE IOM ICMPD OIIP FRONTEX EUROSTAT UNODC Human Trafficking Foundation (UK)

3. Project Objective To share with other countries a THB monitoring system in the framework of Best Practices regarding the harmonization of procedures for the collection, treatment, analysis and sharing of information. Secondary (operational) Objectives: 1. To develop a Common European System to support data analyses at a transnational level, namely by sharing geo-statistical data 2. To deliver customized technical solutions and promote network of data providers 3. To extend the project to other relevant countries of origin, transit and destination in the EU and neighboring countries.

4. The Monitoring System for THB at EU Level: minimum set of Indicators • EU Common Key Indicators (2011): • 1- INFORMATION ON VICTIMS • Number of victims by: • source of information. • age group • gender • gender and age group • form of exploitation. • gender and form of exploitation • gender and nationality • gender and country of recruitment • Numberofvictimswho: • received assistance by gender • Were given a reflection period by gender • Were given a residence permit by gender

5. 2- POLICE DATA ON SUSPECTED TRAFFICKERS • Number of suspected traffickers: • by gender • involved in Organized Crime • by forms of exploitation • by nationality • 3- DATA ON PROSECUTED TRAFFICKERS • Number of prosecuted traffickers: • by gender • by nationality • by forms of exploitation • Number of finalized human trafficking prosecutions • 4- COURT DATA ON CONVICTED TRAFFICKERS • Number of convicted traffickers: • by gender • by forms of exploitation

6. The Monitoring System - Geographic Information Platform E.g. of Data: Criminal data on THB; Judicial; Demographic; Urban; Transports; and so on…

7. The Monitoring System - Geographic Information Platform • This tool allows authorized users to register the location where victims where found (location awareness). With this information, it is possible to: • see the distribution of THB at regional, national and international levels; • build territorial statistics; • detect spatial patterns of the phenomena (cluster analyses) • promote an early warning system • develop synergies and facilitate the understanding of connexions among trafficking networks. • The analyses is performed with an advanced ‘Territorial Statistics’ module to study the THB phenomena, comparing its dynamics within a broader demographic, social and territorial spectrum.

8. Tier I – Victims territorial reference by law enforcement agencies/ NGO at local/regional/national level – linking tactics and strategy to fight THB

9. Tier II – Dynamic Pattern Identification by law enforcement/decision makers - Data fusion for regional view and warning system

10. Tier III – Statistical Integration at EU level in compliance with Eurostat´s Standards

11. Reports – National Level • Simple statistical reports • (upon chosen variables) • Total statistical reports • (from 1 to all data providers) • Time frame statistical reports • (upon chosen data and variable) • Geo-statistical reports • (upon chosen source of information)

12. Reports – European/International Level • Quarterly updated reports – in alignment with the EU Common Key Indicators • Information on VoT • Number of victims by (e.g.): • Source of information / age group / sex / sex and age / nationality…) • Data on prosecuted traffickers (e.g.): • Number of traffickers by gender / types of THB… • Number of finalized prosecutions • Court data on convicted traffickers • Number of convicted traffickers by: • Gender / forms of exploitation

13. Partner countries are invited to: • Improve the quality of data acquisition at the source • Improve data fusion with automated multi-sector approach • Establish early warning systems • Promote Interoperability - technological and semantic levels • Use European Information Systems Framework of development • Improve cooperation (law enforcement and countries) • Apply best practices for data security and THB data sharing at EU level • Test the solution;
