description | The article deals with the international legal regulation of the problem of human trafficking and gender-based violence exacerbated by the war. The author draws attention to the importance of women’s participation in the process of post-war reconstruction, as well as the gender differences in the impact of war on the situation of various vulnerable groups in society. Best protection against gender-based violence, and in particular trafficking in human beings, is to create a situation where there are a few victims as possible, i.e., to prevent the problem. For this purpose, it is never enough to work with victims or vulnerable groups; it is necessary to work with demand, with public opinion, create zero tolerance for such violence, to educate generations of Ukrainians who do not normalize but oppose all forms of gender-based violence, especially its horrific forms such as human trafficking. |
