    Trafficking in human beings is a complex and transnational phenomenon, which affects the life of men, women and children. It evolves according to geopolitical changes related for example to migration or the fight against organized crime. Victims of trafficking transit between European countries, sometimes under the coercion of the criminal networks, sometimes to escape from these networks. These movements can impact the assistance and support measures for which they are intended (for example in terms of access or not to their right to residency). The #ATtrACT+ project has improved the knowledge and skills of social workers, working with trafficked persons in the areas of their identification and protection. In more detail, 33 professionals in charge of the identification and global support of trafficked persons (social workers, lawyers, association coordinators) participated in 9 transnational trainings organized in the different partner countries (details in annexes). The training sessions, each lasting 4 days, were organized according to a practical and participative pedagogical approach, based on times of exchange of practices between professionals (host organization and trainees), on the participative observation of the host organization's activities and meetings with local institutions and NGOs working in the field of human trafficking.On the basis of the knowledge acquired and capitalized by the participants in the transnational training sessions, the members of the steering committee have developed three training and information tools for professionals and one information and awareness raising tool for trafficked persons. These tools are: 1. A travelogue in 4 languages, synthesis of the reports of the trainees who participated in the transnational trainings.2. A mobile application, presenting in an interactive way the phenomenon, the national legislations and the protection programs set up in the 4 countries of the project.3. Six video clips, based on the forum theater approach, describing different problematic situations of identification, referral and protection of victims of trafficking. The video clips are used during training sessions for professionals and aim to encourage debate and participation of the trainees. Their content was developed in cooperation with former victims of trafficking. 4. A comic “Finally free” describing the trafficking and migration routes of two victims and highlighting the risks they may encounter, the rights they may be entitled to and the stakeholders they can trust in the 4 partner countries.The four tools have been disseminated at local, national and European level, to spread the knowledge and skills acquired beyond the project group. Through the actions carried out, the partner associations have strengthened not only their skills but also their inter-association cooperation links and this has had a direct and positive impact on their daily work of identification, support and protection of trafficked persons. Furthermore, by involving former victims of trafficking in the conception and elaboration of intellectual productions, the project has encouraged the constitution of a group of former victims who have since engaged in other empowerment and support initiatives.The skills acquired and the tools produced enrich the content and methodology of the training courses that the partners and the project coordinator carry out at local and national level, even beyond the end of the project.
