Identifying Existing Gaps in the Barbados’ Anti-trafficking Response

In conjunction with an assessment of the situation and the country’s response to TIP, we developed a training curriculum for the judiciary and for immigration and custom officers that will help increase the prevention and prosecution of these crimes.

Enhancing Immigration and Customs Officer Skills to Prevent Human Trafficking

To support the country’s border response to prevent TIP, ABA ROLI developed and delivered training workshops to immigration and customs officers on identifying human trafficking cases. Similarly to our work with judges and prosecutors, ABA ROLI also developed a practical guide for these officers to help them prevent this kind of crime.

Building Capacity of Judges and Prosecutors Response to Human Trafficking

In collaboration with Barbados’ Office of the Attorney General, ABA ROLI organized training workshops for judges and prosecutors on enforcing existing anti-trafficking legislation while protecting the rights and well-being of human trafficking survivors. A prosecutorial guide was also created to help judges and prosecutors strengthen their skills in prosecuting crimes of this nature.
