A two-day training workshop on human trafficking was recently presented on the Main Campus of the University of the Free State (UFS) in Bloemfontein. The workshop was presented by the International Organisation for Migration's (IOM) regional office for Africa, in co-operation with the Free State Network on Violence Against Women and the Unit for Children's Rights at the UFS. The objective of the workshop was to enhance understanding of the human trafficking phenomenon in South Africa amongst civil society organisations and the community at large. Other topics included the prevention of human trafficking, the protection of victims and the laws available to combat human trafficking.
