Paragraph- Paragraph text
- In this region, the 1994 Inter-American Convention on International Traffic in Minors and the Inter-American Convention on the Prevention, Punishment, and Eradication of Violence against Women (Convention of Belém do Pará) contributed to the anti-trafficking legal framework. Other instruments, such as the 2005 Montevideo Declaration against Trafficking in Persons in MERCOSUR (Common Market of the South) and Associated States, the 2008 Recommendations of the First International Congress of MERCOSUR and Associated States on Trafficking in Persons and Child Pornography, the Work Plan against Trafficking in Persons in the Western Hemisphere (2010-2012, later extended for two years, and 2015-2018), the Inter-American Declaration against Trafficking in Persons ("Declaration of Brasilia", 2014) and the Brazil Declaration on a Framework for Cooperation and Regional Solidarity to Strengthen the International Protection of Refugees, Displaced and Stateless Persons in Latin America and the Caribbean (Cartagena+30, 2014), further consolidated regional efforts to eradicate human trafficking.
