description This article provides a first-person account of the Safer Wales program and the importance of capitalizing on the United Nations partnership principle which is one of the four major pillars considered essential in effectively combating human trafficking. The discussion includes reference to how various legislation has helped to strengthen the partnerships within Wales but that there remain several challenges. In addition to reviewing how Safer Wales builds and sustains partnerships, a case study is used to illustrate the relative effectiveness of such an approach. The article concludes with a number of practical observations to show the relative importance of partnerships to effectively combat the exploitation and/or trafficking of children.<br /><br /> Este art&iacute;culo ofrece un relato en primera persona del programa Safer Wales y la importancia de capitalizar el principio de asociaci&oacute;n de las Naciones Unidas. Dicho principio es uno de los cuatro pilares considerados esenciales en la lucha eficaz contra el tr&aacute;fico de personas. El desarrollo del tema incluye referencias a la forma en que la legislaci&oacute;n ha ayudado a fortalecer las asociaciones que se han establecido en Gales, pero tambi&eacute;n hace notar que quedan algunos desaf&iacute;os pendientes. Adem&aacute;s de valorar la forma en que Safer Wales construye y ayuda a mantener asociaciones, se utiliza un estudio de caso para ilustrar la eficacia relativa de ese abordaje. El art&iacute;culo termina con observaciones de tipo pr&aacute;ctico que muestran la importancia de las asociaciones para combatir con eficacia la explotaci&oacute;n y el tr&aacute;fico de ni&ntilde;os.<br /><br /> <strong>DOWNLOAD THIS PAPER FROM SSRN:</strong> <a href="http://ssrn.com/abstract=3086497" target="_blank">http://ssrn.com/abstract=3086497</a>
