Each year, The Protection Project hosts conferences around the world regarding women’s rights, comparative international human rights law, trafficking in persons, child protection, and the role of civil society and the media in monitoring human rights violations. Periodically, The Protection Project will release a call for papers to encourage the participation of scholars, practioners, and experts from around the world in such events. Calls for papers for upcoming conferences:
On November 6, 2012 The Protection Project at The Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies will host a conference titled “The Procedural and Substantive Elements of Prosecuting Cases of Trafficking in Persons: Comparative Models and International Standards” in Washington, D.C., USA. The Symposium will investigate the procedural and substantive elements of prosecuting trafficking cases in the United States and abroad. Law Professors, prosecutors, practicing lawyers, legal clinics providing aid to victims, and NGOs representing victims of trafficking are encouraged to submit a paper addressing different aspects of prosecuting trafficking cases.
