The issue of trafficking in persons for the removal of organs 2013, para. 24
- Paragraph text
- In 2000, the flow of organs was believed to follow the modern route of capital: from the South to the North, from the Third World to the First World, from poor to rich, from black and brown to white, and from female to male. Data reviewed by the Special Rapporteur generally confirmed the key points of this assertion, except in relation to the gender aspect. The trade in organs sharply reflects economic and social divisions within and, most particularly, between countries. Recipients are generally independently wealthy or supported by their Governments or private insurance companies. Victims are inevitably poor, often unemployed and with low levels of education, rendering them vulnerable to deception about the nature of the transaction and its potential impacts. Available information indicates that, while trafficking in persons for the removal of organs can occur within a single country, it may involve legitimate regional cooperation or, most commonly, potential recipients travelling to another country for a transplantation that would be unlawful or otherwise unavailable at home (known as "transplant tourism"). Intermediaries, including brokers and health-care providers, arrange the recipients' travel and recruit "donors".

Strengthening voluntary standards for businesses on preventing and combating trafficking in persons and labour exploitation, especially in supply chains 2017, para. 25
- Paragraph text
- Regarding recruitment regulation, the ILO launched in September 2016 the non-binding ILO general principles and operational guidelines for fair recruitment, in which it is reiterated that recruitment should take place in a way that respects, protects and fulfils internationally recognized human rights, including those expressed in international labour standards, such as prevention and elimination of forced labour. The guidelines enshrine principles related to the prohibition of recruitment fees, transparency in the terms and conditions of employment, the prohibition against confiscating workers’ identity documents, and contracts, among others. Another initiative, the International Recruitment Integrity System (IRIS) was launched by IOM in 2014. IRIS is a multi-stakeholder initiative for labour recruiters that offers a certification system to recognize ethical recruiters on the basis of an evaluation of their compliance with the IRIS Code of Conduct. Based on the ILO labour standards, the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and good practices in the industry, the Code of Conduct also includes principles on the prohibition of charging recruitment fees to jobseekers, respect for freedom of movement, respect for transparency of terms and conditions of employment, respect for confidentiality and data protection and respect for access to remedy.

The first decade of the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially women and children 2014, para. 47
- Paragraph text
- From the inception of the mandate, both the Special Rapporteurs have clearly affirmed the right of victims of trafficking to access remedies for the harms committed against them. In country reports, both mandate holders have consistently examined the extent to which this right is protected by law and realized in practice. This has revealed that trafficked persons are frequently left without remedies or the support necessary to access them, a situation that exacerbates the risk of further human rights violations including through retrafficking. It was on the basis of insights gained through her country visits and information received through other activities, including her assessment of regional response mechanisms, that the Special Rapporteur decided to make effective remedies for victims the subject of more systematic and detailed attention. To that end she organized an expert consultation in 2010 that was followed by an online discussion forum and an interactive dialogue held during the seventeenth session of the Human Rights Council in the context of her thematic reports on the subject (A/HRC/17/35 and A/66/28). Regional consultations were held during 2013 and early 2014 to disseminate, discuss and refine a set of draft basic principles on the right to an effective remedy for trafficked persons.

Stocktaking exercise on the work of the mandate on its tenth Anniversary 2014, para. 23
- Paragraph text
- With regard to national rapporteurs and equivalent mechanisms, the Special Rapporteur wishes to mention specifically the outcomes of the two consultative meetings she convened in 2013 and 2014 in order to foster partnerships and enhance collaboration, in fulfilment of General Assembly resolutions 59/166, 61/144, 63/156, 64/293, 68/186 and 68/192 and in follow-up to reports to the Human Rights Council by the Special Rapporteur and to the Economic and Social Council by the High Commissioner for Human Rights (see, for example, E/2002/68/Add.1, A/HRC/10/16 and Corr. 1 and A/HRC/26/37/Add.1) and directives of the European Union, including directive 12011/36EU. According to statements made by participants at the twenty-sixth session of the Human Rights Council and the responses to a questionnaire sent out by the Special Rapporteur, those outcomes were highly appreciated. The establishment of an informal network of such mechanisms from all over the world in order to address trafficking in persons consistently, exchange information and best practices and build on different national experiences was one of the main outcomes of those meetings. Other recommendations included the need for a global baseline study in order to better understand the roles of national rapporteurs and equivalent mechanisms and provide guidance for their work.

The issue of trafficking in persons for the removal of organs 2013, para. 28
- Paragraph text
- Some 100 illegal kidney transplants were allegedly performed at a hospital in an African country from 2001 to 2003; most of the recipients came from the Middle East. The organs were sourced from persons from Eastern Europe and South America. Investigations revealed the existence of an international organ trafficking syndicate and brought into public view a long-standing and flourishing transplant tourism business.

The issue of trafficking in persons for the removal of organs 2013, para. 26
- Paragraph text
- While persons travelling abroad to receive purchased organs come from many countries and from all regions of the world, "a heavier reliance on overseas transplantation and transplant tourism is believed to exist in Asia and the Middle East than in other regions". Recently, some countries have been identified as organ-importing, or "demand", countries in which criminal prosecutions for trafficking in persons for the removal of organs have been initiated.

The issue of trafficking in persons for the removal of organs 2013, para. 22
- Paragraph text
- Available information on trafficking in persons for the removal of organs is incomplete and often unverified. Scholarly research in this area is not yet well developed and anecdotal reports from civil society organizations and the media remain the primary source of information. Part of the problem lies in the clandestine nature of the trafficking. Even more so than other forms of trafficking in persons, those involved in trafficking in persons for the removal of organs (including victims) have very little incentive to come forward to researchers and criminal justice authorities with information and evidence. Victims are also unlikely to be identified through the multitude of channels that are now used to identify other victims of trafficking such as those subject to forced labour or sexual exploitation. Health-care providers who end up treating persons who have obtained organs abroad may be inhibited from sharing information with the authorities owing to concerns over patient privacy, their own obligations of confidentiality, uncertainty as to whether any laws have been breached or, indeed, their own complicity in the arrangement. Furthermore, definitional problems and confusion contribute to poor reporting and analysis and render comparisons between countries and between transplantation practices extremely difficult.

A human rights-based approach to the administration of criminal justice in cases of trafficking in persons 2012, para. 69
- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur notes that international cooperation and collaboration in the investigation process is also important; for example, Malta grants investigators the legal authority to take all measures they would be entitled to take in a domestic case if so requested by a foreign judicial authority. The Special Rapporteur also recalls the positive example noted at the expert meeting, where the collaboration of law enforcement authorities from Nigeria and other European destination countries regarding the trafficking of persons from Nigeria into the Netherlands and Europe led to the arrest of traffickers in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and the United Kingdom, as well as in the United States and Nigeria. The Netherlands built on the experience by providing the Nigerian agency for the prohibition of traffic in persons (see paragraph 61 above) with training and technical assistance for detectives, prosecutors and border police. Another example of cross-border collaboration can be seen in Rwanda, whose national police Aanti-trafficking unit has collaborated with police in Burundi to rescue victims. In addition, Rwanda has set up the Isange Centre to rehabilitate victims and has made efforts to train law enforcement officials, including by sending them abroad.

- The Special Rapporteur is aware of the fact that each victim of trafficking has a unique story and experience, which makes it difficult to create categorical rules about identification of victims. Yet while there is no one clear formula for best identifying victims, a number of examples and already existing practices may provide guidance on the issue.

The right to an effective remedy for trafficked persons 2011, para. 50
- Paragraph text
- Article 7 of the Palermo Protocol requires each State to consider adopting measures that permit trafficked persons "to remain in its territory, temporarily or permanently, in appropriate cases" and to "give appropriate consideration to humanitarian and compassionate factors" in doing so. At a very minimum, this should entail the provision of a reflection and recovery period to allow trafficked persons to regain physical and psychological stability and to reflect on available options. While an increasing number of States, particularly those in Europe, provide for a reflection and recovery period of varying duration, the majority of States still do not yet establish a reflection and recovery period as a legal right of trafficked persons. Even where it is established by law, trafficked persons often do not benefit from such a period, due to a number of obstacles such as the misidentification of trafficked persons, which results in immediate detention and deportation, and the uncertainty regarding the procedures to be followed in granting the reflection and recovery period. Further, a study on the application of the right to residence found that a reflection and recovery period is often confused with temporary residence status. This confusion is highly problematic, as temporary residence status is often tied to the willingness of trafficked persons to cooperate with law enforcement and testify against traffickers, which defeats the very purpose of a reflection and recovery period.

- The basic principles on the right to an effective remedy for trafficked persons are firmly based on established rules of international law. While States are not usually the direct source of trafficking-related harm, they may not absolve themselves of legal responsibility on this basis (see A/66/283, para. 12). Rather, the obligation to provide remedies, or at least access to remedies, to victims of trafficking is set out in a number of relevant instruments and has been widely recognized by United Nations bodies and regional courts.

- Other laws allow for the confiscation of assets from convicted trafficking offenders but do not directly support victims. For example, in Armenia, although article 266 of the Criminal Code provides for the confiscation of assets from convicted trafficking offenders, it does not specify where those funds would go. Thus, in 2010, although the Government provided partial funding of $17,000 for a shelter for 21 trafficking victims, it was not clear whether the funding was derived from the proceeds of asset confiscation.

In Colombia, an operational anti-trafficking in persons centre coordinates and tracks investigations, prosecutions and victim assistance programmes.

The right to an effective remedy for trafficked persons 2011, para. 26
- Paragraph text
- Thus, significant challenges still remain in ensuring the enjoyment of the right to an effective remedy by trafficked persons. There are positive signs, however, that States increasingly take the right to an effective remedy into consideration in developing and implementing anti-trafficking responses. The Special Rapporteur was encouraged by solid commitments expressed by a number of States during the interactive dialogue at the Human Rights Council to operationalize this right at the national level. Norway, for instance, noted that the provision of essential information to victims of trafficking in an appropriate manner is often a challenge and pledged to use the Special Rapporteur's report as an inspiration for improvement. Australia mentioned important changes to programmes to support for trafficked persons, including the provision of an extended period for reflection and recovery. The Philippines also informed the Special Rapporteur that its anti trafficking legislation provides for the establishment of a national trust fund that uses fines and properties confiscated from convicted traffickers to provide trafficked persons with a variety of services for their recovery, such as emergency shelters, counselling, free legal services, medical and psychological treatment. Other States, such as Brazil, the Republic of Korea and Greece, shared with the Special Rapporteur information on their efforts geared towards the realization of the right to an effective remedy, such as the provision of counselling, housing, health care and legal assistance.

- Diverse means of raising grievances and having them addressed were also debated, including examples of worker hotlines and innovations in the use of smartphone technology. However, it was noted that such efforts alone, not unlike social audits, cannot solve the complex problem of human trafficking, and must be reinforced through other means of awareness-raising, capacity-building, problem identification and access to remedy. Questions were raised about the role played by local authorities in the referral and follow-up of grievances, and about how best to coordinate with such authorities, when necessary. Good practices related to the rehabilitation of trafficking victims and their reintegration into communities and labour markets was also mentioned as a topic in need of urgent attention from all relevant stakeholders.
