Training Law Enforcement on Child Trafficking
ATSEC Bihar – India
ATSEC Bihar provides training programs for law enforcement to increase awareness of
trafficking, improve support and sensitivity for child trafficking victims, and create a childfriendly system. The objectives of the multi-day training sessions include teaching officials
about anti-trafficking laws; highlighting and analyzing the actual scenarios of trafficking; and
recommending concrete and detailed action plans for addressing the problem.
In addition, ATSEC strives to raise public awareness on child protection and human trafficking.
In partnership with the Government of Bihar and the Crime Investigation Department of the
Bihar Police, and in collaboration with Save the Children, ATSEC held a month-long community
awareness campaign to spread the message of protecting children’s rights, and hosted a number
of anti-trafficking activities in urban and rural communities that reached several thousand
people and facilitated further dialogue on the issue.
