An awareness-raising workshop on the fight against trafficking in Human beings was organised on 12 January 2023 in Rabat by the Council of Europe in partnership with the Higher Institute of the Judiciary, within the framework of the South Programme V, a joint initiative co-financed by the European Union and the Council of Europe.

The event aimed at building the capacities of 40 judicial officers, and to officially certify those who have completed the European Human Rights Education Program for Legal Professionals (HELP) course on the fight against trafficking in human beings, adapted to the Moroccan national context and launched in October 2022.

Eight judicial officers will be selected to participate in a simulation exercise of a mock trial, during which they will play the role of lawyer, victim, or defence. This participatory approach exercise will be an opportunity for debates for all participants.
