Description:

The Special Rapporteur visited Greece from 8 to 15 November 2005. The visit took place following a mission to Albania. The purpose of visiting those two neighbouring countries was mainly to better understand transnational dynamics of phenomena such as child trafficking and migration flows of unaccompanied children.
Over the last 15 years, Greece has become a pole of attraction for immigrants owing to its geographical position and its rapid economic growth, but also as a main transit route as well as a country of destination for trafficking in human beings. The number of street children which had reached unprecedented proportions in the 1990s has considerably decreased over the past few years. However, this could partly be due to the adaptability of the criminal network employing the children and it is feared that children may have been assimilated into more underground forms of exploitation. In any case, transnational trafficking of children remains a problem. Greece has made significant progress in combating child trafficking and exploitation. Relevant international instruments have been ratified, while others are in the process of being ratified; new laws have been adopted on trafficking in human beings and migration; an institutional framework to implement the law against trafficking has been set up through the establishment of the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Human Trafficking, and an integrated programme of action was adopted. |
