This action includes the mapping of the target groups (TCN VoT, employers), and needs assessment research, as well as the networking among key actors. The main activities are as following: focus groups with TCN women VoT, workshops with service providers and interviews with employers, local round tables.  The main goal of this activity is to collect best practices across EU.

A multi-faceted Recovery and Integration Programme will be designed and delivered to TCN women VoT, incorporating two parallel and complementary elements: a series of sessions of psychological support using an alternative methodology of healing from the trauma of trafficking targeted to women VoT, and a multi-disciplinary training on employment and entrepreneurship to foster their economic independence and access to the labour market.

Fanzines will be showcased, created by the women during the psychological support sessions in the respective country. Fanzines are an expressive tool, helping women elaborate their trauma using a combination of words and images to share their stories. Fanzines are informal, non-commercial, non-professional means of conveying feelings which are meant to stimulate women`s creativity and ensure their active role in their healing process, while following a psychological process in a safe and comfortable environment.

Women who directly took part in the Recovery and Integration Programme will be invited to participate as role models in 2 peer-to-peer sessions with other TCN women VoT from their personal networks or from the local community where project partners operate.

The topics discussed during the peer-to-peer sessions will be: the experience of human trafficking; the services of social, psychological and economic support they can benefit from; the skills needed to increase their employability; the HEAL programme and availability of the HEAL Database.
