China, Vietnam Cooperate to Halt Human Trafficking

Government delegations from China and Vietnam, accompanied by officials, teachers and students, communication workers, community members and the media launched a joint communication campaign on Friday, 4 June 2004 to combat human trafficking in their border areas.

Border liaison offices have also been set up in both countries to exchange information and experiences at regular monthly meetings.

The new campaign is designed to help educate vulnerable women, children and parents to protect themselves and also to change social and cultural attitudes that contribute to trafficking.

The All-China Women's Federation is involved. The anti-trafficking communication campaign has been jointly developed on both sides of the border. It aims to develop an integrated series of messages that extend from advocacy and social mobilization to program communication at the community level.
