| Summary: |
Practices such as forced labor and other modern forms of slavery, such as trafficking in persons, despite being prohibited and formally rejected by all states, unfortunately and to our shame, continue to exist in the 21st century and affects especially to the most vulnerable groups, with a clear bias due to gender. These practices have a lot of benefits for their promoters, but represent an attack on personal dignity and against equality, perpetuating poverty and hindering economic progress. In the absence of a clear political will of the regulations in force in the matter, it is the jurisdictional bodies that are protecting the victims. In this sense, the Council of Europe, especially through the European Court of Human Rights and the techniques used by it (taking as a reference not only the European Convention on Human Rights or the European Social Charter, but the specific existing Conventions of the International Labour Organization), are giving guidelines for, via personal dignity and universality of rights, combat and eradicate these degrading practices, promoting decent work and strengthening social rights. |
