Punishing victims for crimes committed under duress undermines justice and protection. A panel of experts will discuss practical steps to operationalise the non-punishment principle in cases of trafficking for online scams.
ASEAN-Australia Counter Trafficking
Our three main roles are:
We work with ASEAN regional bodies so that their planning, monitoring and reporting of the ACTIP’s implementation is increasingly effective and advances the protection of victim rights.
We work alongside justice and related agencies as they become increasingly capable of implementing their ACTIP obligations, particularly those that uphold victim rights.
We create opportunities for the policies and practices of justice and related agencies to be influenced by relevant stakeholders and better aligned with ACTIP, especially in connection to victim rights obligations.
