The conference will concern the different aspects of the struggle against human trafficking, around four principles, the four P’s (prevention, prosecution, protection and partnership) that orient the criminal policy in general, such as the one emerging from the Stockholm Programme.

The conference will also look into aspects of the fight against human trafficking both internal and external to the EU, supported in particular by the requirements put forward by the “Action Oriented Paper” adopted under the Swedish Presidency.
