- Summary
- The aim of this International Legal Pocket Compilation is to provide teachers with
a basic yet complete educational Toolkit containing the main international and
regional laws on the dramatic theme of trafficking in human beings and its
manifold implications under the human rights perspective, with particular
reference to women and young people’s condition involved in sexual
exploitation.
All the acts listed in this Compilation include basic reference elements and a
brief introductory note that should help teachers transmit awareness to students
and diffuse knowledge on human rights, which in its very nature is transversal to
single disciplines.
In identifying the material and in its thematic development the model adopted
was that of the United Nations classification, especially from the Office of the
United Nations High Commissioner on Human Rights.
The rest of the International Legal Pocket Compilation is organized in thematic
categories which trace both binding norms (conventions, treaties, protocols…),
and recommendations (declarations, resolutions, principles, guidelines, etc.)
that, depending on the category, can prove pertinent.
The section on international instruments is followed by a section on European
regulations.
