Trafficking a Severe Violation of Human Rights
Human trafficking is a grave breach of human rights, often involving forced labor and sex exploitation.
Achievements in Chad’s Anti-Trafficking Efforts
Chad has ratified the United Nations Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime since 2009 and has enacted several laws to tackle this issue, including the Ordinance Nº006/PR/2018 and the Law Nº12/PR/2018.
Key Measures for Authorities
Authorities are urged to conduct swift investigations, draft proceedings, and transfer cases to the relevant judicial authorities.
Achieving Effective Justice
Cases must be referred to the General Secretary of the Ministry of Justice and the National Commission Against Human Trafficking for rigorous follow-up.
Provincial Delegates’ Role
Provincial delegates are tasked with ensuring strict application of these directives, aiming to create a national database to develop an effective anti-trafficking policy in Chad.
