Council of Europe to train Roma against human trafficking.

The Council of Europe is planning to train Roma people to act as mediators, who will work closely with Roma families in Albania, Moldova and Slovakia in an attempt to prevent more Roma women and children being trafficked into forced prostitution, forced labour and forced begging. Often Roma are left outside of normal prevention schemes, being discriminated against and ostracised. As a result Roma are more vulnerable to being trafficked. Through funding from the Norwegian and Finnish governments, the first training will take place in Strasbourg at the start of November.
