Agenda: Combating Trafficking in Persons and
Exploitation of Female Migrant
Domestic Workers
Tier in the TIP Report. One of the major steps in combating trafficking in persons would
be to allocate funding to state bodies and anti-trafficking NGOs to provide specialized
assistance and rehabilitative care to women who are victims of trafficking. Russia
recommends all nations to change health insurance legislation, so that health insurance
could be offered to migrant workers. States should ensure coherence between migration,
labor and anti-trafficking policies and programs and protect the human rights of all women
migrant workers. The governments and UN Women should work together to assure a better
place for women.
