Summary
The objective of the inventory is threefold. The results should give insight into what has happened to the lives of the 150 women about whom data were submitted, after their coercive situation was ended. The women from different parts of Central and Eastern Europe and South and South-East Asia have in common that their basic human rights were harshly violated. The inventory should also give insight into the effects of both legislation and policies of each of the states concerning the process of safe return and social inclusion from a rights-based perspective. Finally, this insight should lead to recommendations for policy makers and organizations working with victims of trafficking, resulting in new initiatives to protect their rights and improve the services provided to them.
