Cross European Study – for RENATE 2017-2018
A substantial 7 country study undertaken across Malta, Italy, Hungary, Netherlands, Slovakia, Ukraine and Albania, focusing on the rising numbers of unaccompanied children, the challenge of delivering rights protection, a mapping of the variety of procedures followed, and numbers being ‘processed’ through varied national systems, will be published at the end of the year.
A consideration of the emergence of the political ‘backlash’ in compassion and rights for those seeking asylum, is included in this report which was commissioned by RENATE Europe.
RENATE: Religious in Europe Networking Against Trafficking and Exploitation. Originally established by a group of religious representing several different congregations working against human trafficking in Europe. RENATE network with Talitha Qumi the International network of sisters working against trafficking in person. RENATE also collaborates with many other networks within and outside Europe.

Reports in 2016
CCARHT set a number of young researchers to explore the role of small business in improving population stabilisation, decreasing the supply of vulnerable people into forced labour. The system interruption mapping on this piece of work, will be incorporated in an upcoming publication.
Several researchers associated with the Centre explored the dynamics of the extension of the Nordic Model – in the prosecution of the purchaser of sexual services. With the take up of this form of ‘signalling’ from States of a new allocation of the perpetrator Ireland, France, Canada and the Nordic network are under review.
CCARHT is open as a hub of research excellence, to invitations to collaborate on multilateral research projects in any of the main spheres of human trafficking impact. We would note that CCARHT carries particular expertise in the following areas.
A mapping across Europe of counter trafficking needs and activities by the RENATE network – seven countries in focus.

Labour Trafficking and Multi Agency Cooperation TEAMWORK!
January 2016 saw the publication of the following Report from the Netherlands – in co-operation with a panel of experts gathered from Luxembourg, Slovakia and Malta, whose countries will take on the EU presidency in the periods before and after that now being run out by the Netherlands.
TEAMWORK is a multidisciplinary cooperation against trafficking in human beings for labour exploitation. The manual is designed to strengthen multidisciplinary cooperation against trafficking for labour exploitation, and was commissioned in preparation for the Netherlands presidency of the Council of the European Union in the first half of 2016.
Any who would like to comment on this report are welcome to be in touch with contact@ccarht.org to extend our understanding of what works and what has proved disappointing and in need of development in Multi Agency Co-operation – as we drive forward our own research into deepening early detection and enhanced victim care through co-operative working in the public sector across from public protection, and prosecution services, to public health, employment, business regulators and recruitment services.
Reports in 2015
Anti-Trafficking Intervention Programme Targeted to Vulnerable Children
Editorial overview and Introduction
‘A superb, accessible and comprehensive overview of trafficking and its risks for children in Europe today’ Reinhold Müller, Director, European Federation for Street Children (EFSC)
2015 saw the publication and presentation in Brussels of the resultes of a two year consultation sponsored by DG HOME, responding to the challenges of identifying young people at risk of human trafficking across the European Union. CCARHT was an expert editorial adviser in this project, and our CEO, Dr Carrie Pemberton Ford authored the Executive Summary, Introduction and partnered EFSC in the oversight of this work.
The resulting EU-transferable toolkit represents an innovative and highly useful practice-oriented manual in particular for social workers and other front line service providers who are involved in the prevention and protection of vulnerable children against trafficking in their daily work.
It contains 3 training modules for service providers working directly with vulnerable children. Significant improvements are offered in the methodologies which are presented in improving organisational capacity in identification, empowerment of first responders, ‘victim care and agency’ and that all important component of late modern bureaucracy and government resource allocation – data collection.
The report contains a training module directly targeted to empower children to avoid high-risk situations for them, and to enable them to self-disclose where they have encountered at risk environments or where trafficking risk is incipient. The toolkit includes practical annexes to be used during the training modules, as well as a useful summary of the relevant international and European legislation on child trafficking.
Participating countries for this DG funded programme were Slovakia, Poland, Malta, Portugal, UK, Italy and Greece.
The research and intervention programme was funded by the European Commission’s ISEC programme in the Prevention of and Fight against Crime

Major Sports and Counter Trafficking resilience building 2012
The first of CCARHT’s extended commissioned research work was a comprehensive overview on the preparations for the London 2012 Olympics, commissioned by the Legatum Institute in 2010. The report involved scores of interviews, participant research, focus groups, workshops and expert days to reveal the significance of multi-agency, strategically focused and the generation of clear protocols to underpin the generation of as limited a Human Trafficking risk, and safety of all those involved in the construction of and delivery of the London 2012 Olympic games.
CCARHT’s initial draft report was presented to the London 2012 anti Trafficking Network which brought together enforcement, not for profits organisations, faith sector alliances, social services, safeguarding children teams borough council representatives, and the Mayor of London’s Policing and Crime designated team, in a pro-active programme of resilience against Human Trafficking for the 2012 games.
The report is the first detailed multi sectoral, counter trafficking strategy document associated with any Olympic Games delivery, and presages the arrival of the Transparency in the Supply Chain legislation which emerged for the UK Government in 2015 as part of the Modern Slavery Act. For anyone interested in the intersection of Human Trafficking in all its forms and the delivery of a counter Trafficking risk averse Mega Sports Event, this is required reading. Available on Kindle.

CCARHT continues to reach into the UN and other international bodies to promote a more pro-active engagement with major sporting events to build resilience in procurement and end delivery processes for these events.
This essential close attention to procurement, to training, to awareness raising, and to capacity building for businesses, local councils, governments, law enforcement and those tasked with delivering mega sports events, in order to close down trafficking and forced labour intrusion in the myriad of contracts and activities which make up delivery of these high profile events, is one of the benefits of having a think tank, research hub such as CCARHT.
If you are on the starting grid for Mega Sports bid, or the early stages of delivery, do get in touch. Our team of sustainability, transparency, enforcement, counter money laundering, risk testing, multi agency collaboration and systems researchers, are here to resource you on your journey, and assist you in building the safest Mega sports event that you and your partners can envisage.
