\"\"A growing number of children from Moldova are being trafficked to Russia, reads a report entitled "Trafficking in Human Beings in South Eastern Europe: 2004 – Focus on Prevention", presented here last Friday by the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) Representative to Moldova, the United Nations Resident Coordinator, and the OSCE Mission to Moldova. <\/p>\n

The authors wrote that children are victimized in two ways, through cruelty and maltreatment, and through being forced into physical labor and prostitution. Children under 13 years of age are forced into begging, and are often used as donors of human organs. <\/p>\n

UNICEF Representative to Moldova Giovanna Barberis pointed out that many of the victims of trafficking who have been assisted in Moldova had experienced domestic violence in their past. She said the UNICEF does not regard trafficking in children as a separate problem, and if the society really wants to root out such a phenomenon, efforts should be focused on upbringing both children and parents. <\/p>\n

The international experts are pointing out: as the western border of Moldova is better controlled, there is more evidence of trafficking through Ukraine to Russia, and less about trafficking through Romania. <\/p>\n

The report highlights the experience of UNICEF Moldova in strengthening the protective environment for children and families by addressing the root cases that contribute to the vulnerability. Approaches used include supporting parental education programs, specialized services for children victims of abuse, neglect, and establishing youth friendly centers. Also, life skills education for the prevention of trafficking and youth unemployment was supported in order specifically to address one of the most vulnerable groups – children and young people graduating from residential care institutions. <\/p>\n
