A Set of Minimum Standards

This document publication seeks to help managers, planners and caseworkers of the International Organisation for Migration (IOM), its partner organisations, as well as governmental bodies and institutions and NGOs develop and implement effective and highquality psychosocial support programmes for trafficked persons and groups, in a standardised and co-ordinated way. The document summarizes a series of baseline standards for comprehensive and co-ordinated psychosocial care of trafficked persons throughout the process of their rescue from forced labour, slavery, torture, and humiliation. These Minimum Standards are intended as a supplement to the recently compiled and published Training Manual focusing on mental health aspects of counter-trafficking (IOM, Budapest 2004), and expand on other related sources and training materials aiming at counter-trafficking.
