TRANSNATIONAL APPROACHES TO FIGHT HUMAN TRAFFICKING FROM NIGERIA: RESEARCH, PRACTICES, POLICIES - Insight
The INSigHT Action has the main aim to increase the capacity of key local stakeholders in the
Veneto Region (Italy), Edo State and Lagos (Nigeria) and Stockholm (Sweden) to tackle human
trafficking and to deal with its evolving dynamics, trends, forms and modus operandi, with
specific attention to women and girls, while promoting knowledge-based policy making in the
respective countries and reinforcing transnational cooperation.

Il progetto INSigHT ha lo scopo principale di migliorare la capacità dei principali
stakeholder della Regione Veneto (Italia), degli stati di Edo e Lagos (Nigeria) e dell’area
di Stoccolma (Svezia) per affrontare il fenomeno della tratta di esseri umani e far fronte
alle sue dinamiche, tendenze, e modus operandi in continua evoluzione, con attenzione
specifica a donne e ragazze, promuovendo nel contempo un processo decisionale basato
sulla conoscenza e rafforzando la cooperazione transnazionale.
