Summary
Second issue of “LA STRADA EXPRESS” magazine. This issue makes part of a series of thematic editions, planned to be published by International Center “La Strada” (Moldova) to give coverage to the issue of trafficking in persons, search and analyze best practices in counteracting this disgraceful phenomenon of modern life, work out recommendations as to how solve this issue in our country. Just as the first issue, this one is dedicated to only one problem within the scope of the above-mentioned range of problems. The subject of our first issue was creation of a referral mechanism for trafficked people in Moldova. This issue we dedicate to the identification of trafficked people, which is intimately connected with the previous subject. Authors of the OSCE/ODIHR Practical Handbook on the creation of a referral mechanism for trafficked persons called identification of trafficked people one of the two key elements of the above-mentioned mechanism. This issue is therefore a continuation of the previous one. Despite the importance of identification of trafficked people, this subject has been barely touched upon. Despite the fact that international standards related to issues of trafficking in persons highlight the importance of identification of trafficked people and set forth rules of conducts for the specialists, as yet we have not managed to find a comprehensive definition.
