09 August 2021 – To mark World Day against Trafficking in persons on 30 July, Armenia has joined the Blou Hart-veldtog. With this, the country has become the newest member of the community of now 35 states in supporting the global campaign against human trafficking.

On this occasion, and as part of its ongoing anti-trafficking efforts, the Armenian Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs launched a dedicated campaign on human trafficking and exploitation awareness and prevention. “We will launch a series of very important actions to promote awareness,” said Ms. Tatevik Stepanyan, Deputy Minister of Labor and Social Affairs.  

Armenia is both a country of origin and destination for victims of human trafficking. In the past years, the country has increased the number of human trafficking-related investigations, convictions of traffickers, and has also achieved to increase the number of identified victims.

As a global awareness raising initiative to fight human trafficking and its impact on society, the Blue Heart Campaign seeks to encourage Governments, civil society, the private sector and individuals alike to act and help prevent this heinous crime.

In its mission to end human trafficking, the Campaign also supports the United Nations Voluntary Trust Fund for Victims of Trafficking in Persons which raises and disburses funds to strengthen civil society organizations dedicated to human trafficking victims suffering from a variety of forms of exploitation, especially women and girls exploited by sex-related crime.
Over the past decade, the Trust Fund has supported more than 100 grassroot NGOs in over 50 countries by providing tangible assistance to more than 5,000 victims of human trafficking every year.
