The right to an effective remedy for trafficked persons 2011, para. 43
- Paragraph text
- States should encourage trafficked children to express their views and give them due consideration in accordance with their age and maturity. In order to facilitate this process, States should ensure that trafficked children are equipped with information on all matters affecting their interests, including their situation, legal options, entitlements and services available to them, and processes of family reunification or repatriation. Further, States should ensure that trafficked children have access to legal, interpretative and other necessary assistance, provided by professionals trained in child rights and how to communicate with trafficked children.

The issue of trafficking in persons for the removal of organs 2013, para. 74
- Paragraph text
- All States, in particular countries of "demand", should take steps to ensure that the jurisdictional reach of their laws relating to trafficking in persons for the removal of organs enables the effective prosecution and punishment of related offences involving their nationals. For countries requiring specific legislation, this would be most effectively secured through laws that extend the national legislative prohibition on trafficking in persons for the removal of organs and related offences extraterritorially, irrespective of the legal status of the relevant acts in the country in which they occur. Extraterritorial legislation developed to combat child sex tourism and similarly situated offences can provide a useful model in this regard.

The first decade of the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially women and children 2014, para. 78b
- 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.

Paragraph
Trafficking in persons in conflict and post-conflict situations 2016, para. 63
- Paragraph text
- Conflict influences the form and nature of trafficking in different ways. The severity of trafficking-related exploitation appears to be high when it occurs during conflict, and may be even greater in post-conflict situations, enhanced by conditions that are themselves a cause or consequence of conflict, such as impunity and an increase in generalized violence. Certain forms of trafficking-related exploitation, such as forced military recruitment of both children and adults, are either specific to conflict or more prevalent in situations of conflict. Sexual exploitation is another form of trafficking that intersects with the dynamics of situations of conflict, including the use of proceeds from the trafficking, trading and ransoming individuals to purchase arms and pay fighters, which perpetuates the cycle of violence against civilians.

Trafficking in persons in conflict and post-conflict situations 2016, para. 58
- Paragraph text
- However, conflict influences the form and nature of trafficking in different ways. First, the severity of trafficking-related exploitation appears to be greater when it occurs during or, indeed, after conflict, enhanced by conditions that are themselves a cause or consequence of conflict, such as impunity and increased, generalized violence. Second, certain forms of trafficking-related exploitation are either particular to conflict or more prevalent in situations of conflict, such as forced military recruitment of both children and adults. Sexual exploitation is another form of trafficking that intersects with the dynamics of situations of conflict, including the use of proceeds from trafficking, trading and ransoming individuals to purchase arms and pay fighters, which perpetuates the cycle of violence against civilians.
