Abstract: Trafficking in human beings takes many different forms. It is a dynamic and flexible phenomenon and, like many other forms of criminal activity, is constantly evolving to thwart law enforcement efforts to prevent it. Every day we learn about new ways to prevent, investigate and combat trafficking, as well as more effective ways to provide assistance and protection to victims of this crime. International cooperation, absolutely crucial for the success of anti-trafficking interventions, is gaining new boost as new cooperation mechanisms are developed. This cooperation has been developed because more needs to be done to fully understand the most effective ways to prevent and respond to human trafficking in certain circumstances. It contains a set of conceptual, legislative and organizational tools used in different parts of the world. The tool set is based on the assumption that the issue of trafficking in human beings, either at national or local level, can only be effectively addressed through the use of multi-faceted, rights-based strategies that take into account the transnational nature of the phenomenon. , the many related criminal activities, the very frequent involvement of organized criminal groups and the extent of the suffering and fear experienced by the victims, as well as the damage suffered. Most of its instruments focus on a specific aspect of the overall response required.
