NRM by itself is a democratic institution and plays an important role in development of democracy in a certain country, facilitates the processes of building and development of law-based state. The value of the NRM concept is that NRM creation does not require some additional investments. The increase of efficiency of human rights protection of the trafficked persons and efficiency of all counter-trafficking system is reached not through creation of some new structures in the country but due to the co-operation development among involved organizations, work-related performance, use of new approaches etc. About five years have already passed since the adoption of the OSCE Anti-Trafficking Action Plan. During this time many countries have carried out a number of measures for the NRM creation and implementation, and each has accumulated its own experience (positive and negative). Besides this, there were undertaken measures on the international level for further development of the theoretical base – the International Center for Migration Policy Development provided support for development of the Draft Guidelines for the creation of the Transnational Referral Mechanisms for the victims of trafficking in South-Eastern Europe. The generalization of the practices of the different countries will help in better perception of elements and principles of NRM, will allow identifying the new elements, approaches, and particularities of NRM progress in different countries, and will develop important recommendations for improvement of the NRM theoretical basis. All these mentioned above, were in fact the main objectives of the international forum in Chisinau. At the conference were made a number of conclusions and recommendations that are now included in this report. We hope that these recommendations will be useful for the specialists and for all those interested in anti-trafficking activities. The organizers of the Conference would like to thank everyone who contributed to the good development of this international conference and values their contribution to the development of the National Referral Mechanism designed for the assistance and protection of the human trafficking victims. |

This issue was preceded by a rapid assessment of the problem (click here), as well as public opinion survey with regard to domestic violence phenomenon conducted together with “Magenta Consulting” limited company (click here). In general, the topics raised in the present publication are based on opinions and proposals made by many experts in this matter, representatives of NGO’s, go¬vernment structures, intergovernmental organizations active in the domain as well as by the specialists, representatives of different professional groups (social assistants, psychologists, family doctors, politicians, judges who by virtue of their service mandate encounter different cases of domestic violence). In addition, the authors gathered information on the phenomenon from direct source, namely, from the victims of domestic violence – the women themselves that have suffered in the past or suffering at the moment from violence. “Under this context we were interested to learn both – opinion of those who went through experience of human trafficking and of exclusive domestic violence victims that have benefited from specialized assistance (for example, beneficiaries of the Public Association “Refugiul Casa Marioarei”), stated by the authors. The current issue also includes a number of articles about the experience of some overseas organizations (from Israel, Bulgaria, and USA). The issue is meant for the specialists whose activity is bound to counteracting domestic violence and, in the first place, for the ones who by virtue of their activities come in contact with the victims of domestic violence (as well as with the aggressors) and are competent as well as responsible for taking certain measures of prevention, protection or assistance. We hope that this material will be used for elaborating certain policies, lines of activity and also for the purpose of exchange of experience by the specialists as well as by the NGO’s acting in the domain. Likewise, we believe that our publication will also serve as useful source of information for the representatives of public authorities of any level that are qualified to determine internal policy of the country and regions of eradication of phenomenon as well as for all other persons interested in the problem of prevention and combating domestic violence |
