1) Objective

The Countering Trafficking in Persons and Support to Vulnerable Populations (CTIP/V) Activity, implemented by the Agency for International Development in Ukraine (USAID-Kiev), aims to address the issue of trafficking in persons (TIP) and provide support to vulnerable populations. The primary objectives of the activity are to prevent TIP through a strengthened comprehensive, government-led counter-trafficking response and to ensure nationwide access to trauma-informed and survivor-centered recovery and reintegration services for victims of trafficking, exploitation, gender-based violence (GBV), and detention/torture.
