Implementation of support mechanism for victims of trafficking. Activities might include, but are not limited to: Establish shelters for returned victims of trafficking at the hot-spot locations where shelter services do not exist. Build local capacity to provide protection, health, psychological and social services for victims of trafficking. Develop an effective, collaborative, and mutually supportive relationship with existing health, education and protection services provided by NGOs, local authorities or other entities in the Mekong Delta, in particular with activities under the on-going USAID-funded UNIAP project. Develop an outreach program from an existing shelter to additional hot-spot locations.All activities should promote the goal of strengthening the Mekong Delta community's capacity in coping with trafficking crimes and provide the essential services for victims of trafficking.
