Prevention of trafficking in persons 2010, para. 62
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Furthermore, in conjunction with monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of prevention programmes, it is important to assess any unintended negative impact on the human rights of all persons, especially trafficked persons. As discussed above, some measures designed to prevent trafficking, although well-intended, may cause more harm to the human rights of trafficked persons than good. In order to ensure the primacy of the human rights of trafficked persons, it is essential that the impact of prevention measures be closely monitored and assessed on a regular basis.
