Progetto Assist

bandiera Unione Europea

 

This project is funded by the European Union’s Asylum, Migration and Integration fundfemale victims of trafficking for sexual exploitation

Siamo stati liete di comunicare formalmente l’avvio del progetto per supportare le donne migranti vittime di tratta.

Il progetto si concentra sull’integrazione delle donne trafficate che escono dallo sfruttamento sessuale. Questa iniziativa tiene conto della dimensione di genere del traffico in Europa e dei danni e dei traumi specifici di genere associati al traffico finalizzato allo sfruttamento sessuale. Scopo del progetto è fornire una serie di servizi di supporto alle donne quali: consulenza legale, informazioni e supporto nell’accesso all’assistenza materiale (sociale e finanziaria).

L ‘importanza dell’assistenza specifica per il genere è riconosciuta dal diritto dell’UE.
