highly needed. &nbsp;A new 298-page study released today by the Kathmandu School of Law (KSL) reveals that human trafficking in South Asia cannot be effectively addressed without unification of the complete range of tools that can be used in arrest and prosecution of traffickers and those who use trafficked persons. The study makes recommendations for harmonizing regional anti-trafficking legal frameworks, policies and programs, and encourages co-operation at the regional level to place anti-trafficking responses in the context of human rights international standards. &nbsp;The study provides directions for harmonizing the anti-trafficking laws in India, Bangladesh and Nepal with a view to contributing to the development of good governance on the issue of trafficking in women and children at both national and regional levels.</span><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'> <br> <br> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>From a human rights perspective, especially the anti-slavery perspective, the study provides a critical comparative overview of the substantive and procedural legal frameworks that address the crime of trafficking of persons. It also reviews international standards, including the 2000 <i>Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons</i>, and evaluates the effectiveness and adequacy of the existing criminal justice in the region. It compares the legal procedures and enforcement mechanisms of the criminal justice systems of India, Bangladesh and Nepal in the light of international human rights law, and critically reviews the overall goals and objectives of the anti-trafficking legal regimes of the three countries. </span><span style='mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'><br> <br> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>The Kathmandu School of Law in coordination with South Asian Law Schools Forum for Human Rights (SALS Forum) with the support of the Terre des hommes International Federation commissioned this regional study.
