Abstract

The victims of modern slavery have many faces. They are men and women, adults and children. Yet, all are denied basic human dignity and freedom...in that kind of conditions it is hard for them to imagine that there might be a place of refuge. (Barrack Obama)
The Palermo Protocol focused the attention of the global community on combating trafficking in human beings. For the first time, an international instrument called for the criminalization of all acts of trafficking and for the governmental response that should incorporate the “3P” paradigm: prevention, criminal prosecution and victim protection.
Macedonia as a state party of the Convention and its Protocol for trafficking in human beings did not remain immune to the modern slavery. That’s why as one of the obligations from the Protocol of Palermo, the Standard Operative Procedures were established.
The Standard Operative Procedures for protection and treatment of victims of trafficking in human beings were established with an aim to secure help and protection for the victims through a multi – institutional approach based on the human rights policy and directed to the victim as a framework for institutional cooperation.
The Standard Operative Procedures give a secure process of protection of the human rights of the victims and their treatment from the beginning (the identification as a victim) till the end of the criminal procedure.
Key words: Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings, Criminal Procedure, Human Rights, Protection, Protocol of Palermo, Republic of Macedonia, Standard Operative Procedures, Trafficking in Human Beings, Treatment, Victim.
