Strengthening response to trafficking
We increase frontline responders’ capability to support victims of trafficking with an empathetic approach.

Resilience
“The training provided us a better understanding of how to provide comprehensive support for returnees, how to ask questions so they can share more. The questions in the questionnaire can help us understand more about their circumstances and thoughts after their returning.”

Courage
"The main problem that I see within the police or national level is that there are a lot of prejudices towards Vietnamese population, Vietnamese nationals. There’s a willingness to cooperate, to speak. It’s important to break those prejudices and to have a different approach towards victims as well as perpetrators because you [...] want them to open up and speak."
