  1. “is working with local authorities to disrupt smuggling networks and provide assistance to victims. The IOM. has been voluntarily providing assistance with returns since 2015 to some 13,000 migrants who have left Libya to return to more than 30 countries around the world. In conclusion, the IOM. strongly supports the Council's efforts to eliminate human trafficking in conflict situations, and we call on the Council to take into account the humanitarian aspects of crisis-induced human trafficking.”

  2. “We therefore emphasize the importance of increasing efforts to provide good data, improve the analysis of the information available and share that information as widely as possible. We should find ways to overcome obstacles to sharing trafficking data, within a framework of strict confidentiality and data privacy protection. That can be achieved through multi-stakeholder open-data publishing platforms, such as the IOM's Counter-Trafficking Data Collaborative. Finally, the IOM. welcomed the statement that the Secretary-General made on Monday about Libya. In a press release today, the Director General of the IOM called for a number of possible concrete actions to be considered. The smugglers' business model is at the core of this human episode, and the IOM.”

  3. “Secondly, despite the progress that has been made in protecting people identified as victims of human trafficking, the numbers of those who benefit from protection schemes remain small. In order to address this problem, we must increase the ability of Governments and civil society to identify and assist migrants in vulnerable situations, including victims of trafficking, by targeting high-risk locations such as border crossing points, as well as sectors in industries where the risk oftrafficking is high and where effective responses are urgently required. Thirdly, our experience from working in many parts of the world has shown us that responding to human trafficking requires appropriate and timely data.”

  4. “First, while legal frameworks for victims of trafficking have been strengthened in recent years, less progress has been made in preventing human trafficking from occurring in the first place. The demand for cheap goods and sexual services is what drives human trafficking. Recent studies by the IOM and the International Labour Organization have shown that the impact of armed conflict on trafficking, child recruitment and forced labour is on the rise. Efforts should therefore be made to reduce the demands for goods and services that are met by trafficked persons and exploited migrants. That requires concrete measures that will encourage, help or oblige companies to establish decent working conditions for all employees in their supply chains.”

  5. “We are mindful that this open debate is happening at a time of unprecedented global human mobility, record high numbers of displaced populations and multiple simultaneous, complex and protracted crises in different parts of the world that are putting more and more vulnerable people at risk of human trafficking. We are concerned about the fact that the rights of many migrants continue to be violated during potentially fatal journeys. We have seen and learned from first- hand experience that situations of armed conflict, natural disasters and protracted humanitarian crises can create conditions conducive to human trafficking. With that in mind, I would like to highlight three areas where, from the IOM's perspective, a more concerted effort and coordinated action are required.”

  6. “Mr. Nour: I am pleased to be taking the floor on behalf of the International Organization for Migration (IOM). I would first like to thank Italy and the Security Council for convening today's important open debate. The IOM. welcomes the increased attention that the international community is according to human trafficking, and particularly the recent focus on the phenomenon of human trafficking in conflict situations. The IOM. believes that the crime of human trafficking has been largely overlooked in emergency situations, despite growing evidence of the connections between human trafficking and armed conflict.”
