Description

How does trauma shape a victim’s ability to engage with the legal system — and what does this mean for lawyers handling trafficking or migrant-smuggling cases? This session brings together UNODC experts and practitioners to explore credibility challenges, access to legal aid, and the practical realities victims face during investigations and prosecutions.
