    .@Uber is the first private company to join INTERPOL’s Human Trafficking Experts Group. We truly value the role of private sector partners in identifying, reporting and disrupting #humantrafficking.
    It was an honour to join @Interpol_htce ‘s Human Trafficking Experts Group in Nigeria! Thank you for having us at the global conference in Abuja this week to discuss how to use technology to disrupt human trafficking. #endtrafficking #humantrafficking

    #SaferInternetDay: We are all, at one point or another, contacted by someone we don't know. We need to talk about the risks of unsolicited messages and random friend requests with children. Let's teach them to: ✅ Be vigilant ✅ Be skeptical ✅ Be safe

    Police cooperation = results. This case started with material uploaded to INTERPOL’s International Child Sexual Exploitation database in 2017 by Australia, which was later complemented by Denmark and the INTERPOL Victim Identification Task Force. bit.ly/2EaRiND

    A two-year long operation coordinated by our Crimes Against Children unit. A huge amount of work by all stakeholders involved. Looking forward to more results stemming from these arrests.

    Task Force events allow victim identification specialists to share intelligence, explore int'l connections and avoid duplication of effort. A key part of the VIDTF model is the uploading of images & video files to INTERPOL's International Child Sexual Exploitation Database.
    3 victims of #childabuse tentatively identified during the 6th Victim Identification Task Force hosted at Europol with 34 experts from 24 countries and 29 agencies coming together. The life and dignity of every child is of the utmost importance to us all: europol.europa.eu/newsroom/news/…

    The 500+ #HumanTrafficking victims rescued in Operation WEKA demonstrate the need for law enforcement to cooperate across borders. 🤝 INTERPOL is working closely w/ the Regional Operational Centre in Khartoum (ROCK) to better address migrant smuggling in the Horn of Africa.

    Although a broad distinction can be made between the two, there is often overlap, particularly when migrants fall victim to forced labour or exploitation along their route.

    Grooming is often used by abusers to gradually gain a child’s trust. When it’s done online, they can easily hide behind a thumbnail image or pseudonym. #SaferInternetDay
