We were invited to attend The Pacific Trafficking in Persons Forum in Wellington in December. This was the second time the forum has taken place. It brings together the top organizations from the Pacific region working towards the elimination of human trafficking. This was a huge privilege for us and we got to mix and mingle with the best!

We débuted our human trafficking resource here and it received high praise from those attending. This is a huge encouragement for us, and a sign that we’re heading in the right direction. Close to 100 resource packs were taken by people attending the conference. This means that people from all over New Zealand, Australia, Fiji, Tonga, and even the United States have our resource packs in their hands to read over and share with colleagues. This is a great start for us.

During these two days, we formed some invaluable contacts and got to show off the results of our hard work. Key people working to eliminate human trafficking in the Pacific region know who The Préscha Initiative is, and more importantly, like what we do!
