Romania has made a significant step against child rape. Yesterday, Romanian President Klaus Iohannis passed the bill that pushes the age of consent to 16. Therefore, any sexual acts between an adult and a minor below 16 is considered statutory rape.There is also a ”Romeo and Juliet” clause that provides an exception to the law in the event of a relationship where one of the parties involved is a minor and the other person is close in age, but no more than 5 years. eLiberare, alongside the anti-trafficking ProTECT platform and other non-governmental coalitions in Romania worked tirelessly for the past 2 years to advocate for these legislative changes in a quest to diminish the number of cases where judges considered that girls at very young ages could consent to sexual acts with adults.We think this is an important and long awaited law for protecting children against sexual abuse and violence. Of course, in order to be efficient, a law must be correctly applied, without any misinterpretation, therefore one of our priorities for the future is to monitor the implementation of the law.#ageofconsent #statutoryrape #eliberare #protectplatform

    We are delighted to join the Permanent Representation of France to the OSCE and the Ambassade de France en Autriche in a timely discussion on combating sexual exploitation in armed conflicts. Our chairwoman, Ioana Bauer, will share some of the lessons learned and solutions piloted by our organization during the years that allowed for early, proactive identification of victims of human trafficking.

    What does kaleidoscopic justice look like for human trafficking victims and how can we each contribute to it? Our CEO, Loredana Urzica-Mirea talked about this at the latest Leaders for Justice event in Suceava.

    Proiectul de lege care interzice pedepsele cu suspendare pentru infracțiunea de trafic de persoane a trecut de Parlament. Loredana Urzica-Mirea, director executiv Asociația eLiberare pentru Stirile ProTV “Avem o rată foarte mare a victimelor care sunt retraumatizate și retraficate. Pentru că aceștia infractori sunt în libertate până la urmă. Ei se află în comunitate și își continuă într-o formă sau alta activitățile pe care le făceau și înainte de condamnare”.

    Proiect: Infractorii condamnați pentru trafic de persoane și pedofilie nu mai primesc pedepse cu suspendare stirileprotv.ro

    The new Romanian Strategy Against Human Trafficking was officially adopted last week and published today in the Official Gazette. Our team has been strategically involved in the consultations and we are currently working on several priorities that are included in the strategy such as the implementation of the National Referal Mechanism which will improve proactive identification. Together with our partners from the ProTECT Platform we will keep monitoring the implementation of the Strategy and the Action Plan. #endinghumantrafficking #ProTECT #victimsassistance

    So grateful to have been a part of the Global Gathering that Atlas Free hosted last week!Being with so many comealongsiders, dreaming of what collective impact can look like in this coming season has been nothing short of inspiring. From how to ensure victims are no longer hidden in plain sight by myths and biases, to the hope that comes with knowing we are not alone in this: we laughed together, we cried together and we were reminded once again why we got into this, in the first place.#together #hope #humantrafficking #inittoendit

    Exciting News: EU Implements Ban on Forced Labor Products 🌍Thrilled to share that the European Parliament has just passed groundbreaking legislation prohibiting the sale of products derived from forced labor within the EU market. This landmark decision underscores the EU's unwavering commitment to ethical business practices and human rights.Under this new regulation, companies must swiftly remove any forced labor-associated products from their shelves, both in-store and online, to avoid hefty fines. By taking proactive steps to ensure compliance and conduct thorough due diligence within their supply chains, businesses can safeguard against potential economic risks and reinforce their commitment to integrity.With a three-year grace period for implementation, now is the perfect time for organizations to reevaluate their supply chain practices and align them with the EU's ethical standards. Let's work together to build a future where human rights are upheld, and businesses thrive on principles of integrity and responsibility. #EU #EthicalBusiness #ForcedLaborBan
