In continuation and inheritance of the Project Phase I for “Establishment of Anti-Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Hotline” (2012-2016) which has expanded the existing Child Help Hotline operated in Hanoi, An Giang and Ha Giang provinces to include a function as a hotline for anti-TIP, and strengthened the operation of the hotline, under the coming Project Phase II (2017-2020), the hotline connecting units in An Giang province and the newly established connecting unit in Da Nang city will be upgraded into higher level of regional call centers, which, together with the existing one in Hanoi, are expected to enhance the counseling on anti-human trafficking in the South, Center and North regions, and boost up the complete support for trafficked victims.
Specifically, the counselors of the centers will be under MOLISA’s management and training which would help to ensure the required expertise. Furthermore, the operation’s greater achievement is expected thanks to the nationwide recognition of the Hotline number 18001567. This would enable the high effectiveness of the project activities.
Since its operation in October 2013 to date, there have been nearly 10,000 calls to the Hotline 18001567, among which 232 calls were immediately referred to the Police for investigation and resulted in 92 rescued victims.
