KINGSTON, Jamaica, Jul 31, CMC – Jamaica is this week, commemorating the 20th anniversary of the National Task Force Against Trafficking in Persons (NATFATIP), marking two decades of coordinated, multi-agency efforts to combat human trafficking.
Key among the commemorative events is a week of activities, designed to raise public awareness and reinforce Jamaica’s fight against human trafficking.
The week, being held under the global theme, ‘Human Trafficking is Organised Crime – End the Exploitation’, commenced with a commemorative church service last Sunday.
The week culminates on Friday, with Freedom Fest at Emancipation Park, a vibrant celebration of resilience and freedom that amplifies Jamaica’s anti-trafficking advocacy.
