Roma children and women are the most vulnerable category in human trafficking. This was one of the conclusions in the analysis conducted within the project of the Roma Association for Women and Youth “Luludi”, financed by the European Union. The project coordinator, Ines Djemail, said that the information from the National Commission against Trafficking say that there are 24 victims in the past three years. 403 high school students consider that the social media increases the risk of being a victim of human trafficking. ¾ have said that they know the meaning of the term “human trafficking” but that they mainly relate this term to prostitution. The most vulnerable group is the parentless children, women and children who live in poverty and unemployment”. The conductors of the project said that the institutions and the society should do more to stop this trend and to better inform the children and women for the dangers of this crime. The project was implemented in five municipalities, and 10 high schools have been included. The campaign for raising awareness was conducted in September 2020 until May 2021.
