Listen "Helping Refugees from Ukraine and Preventing Exploitation"
Episode Synopsis
On May 12, PRIO hosted a panel discussing measures to prevent human trafficking in the context of the war in Ukraine, between volunteers' crucial assistance and governments' measures to control and gain oversight. The discussion focused on raising awareness around the power dynamics at play between the refugees, citizen-led volunteer networks and organizations, and governments' tools both for facilitating these forms of assistance and for preventing human trafficking, against the background of ongoing reception efforts of people fleeing Ukraine.
