The first decade of the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially women and children 2014, para. 78b
Paragraph
Paragraph text
[The Human Rights Council should:] Consider abbreviating the title of the mandate by removing the specific reference to women and children. While that reference is part of the title of the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children, it may deflect attention from the reality that trafficking is a problem affecting men as well as women and children. However, the substance of the mandate as set out in Human Rights Council resolution 8/12: "to promote the prevention of trafficking in persons in all its forms and the adoption of measures to uphold and protect the human rights of victims" has proved to be a sound one that requires no substantial modifications.
Legal status
Non-negotiated soft law
Body
Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially in women and children
