Mission & Goals
The Platform was formed in connection to the GRETA evaluation of Sweden 2013, when the coordinator Ninna Mörner took and invited a broad range of representatives form the civil society, encouraged also by our National Coordinator. The Platform is today a human rights based non-profit organization focusing on combatting human trafficking and restoring the dignity of victims of trafficking and further to work to strengthen human rights for victims. Our members are experts and NGOs with a human rights base, but with varying target groups and agendas. Together we can offer the whole chain of assistance; identification, first aid, medical care, clothes, support, legal advice, trauma treatment, long term assistance, safe return and integration.
EU Legislative Interests
The Swedish Civil Society Platform Against Human Trafficking is based on the definition of human trafficking outlined in the UN Palermo Protocol. International agreements and other human rights instruments referenced include: the Council of Europe Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings, the Council of Europe Directive 2004/81/EC on member states' obligations towards vulnerable individuals from third countries; the EU Directive 2011/36 on member states' commitments to strengthen access to rights for victims, in line with the guidelines set out in the EU Strategy towards the Eradication of Trafficking in Human Beings. The most recent European Union initiatives, policies, and legislative/non-legislative files that we actively monitor and engage with include: Directive (EU) 2024/1712 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 June 2024 amending Directive 2011/36/EU on preventing and combating trafficking in human beings and protecting its victims DIRECTIVE (EU) 2024/1385 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 14 May 2024 on combating violence against women and domestic violence Generally, we provide insights and experiences on how legislation and strategies should be shaped to protect as many people as possible and combat trafficking in human beings. This includes engaging with parliamentarians, the responsible commissioner, and participating in public debates and civil society consultations.
