UN.GIFT Steering Committee

The Steering Committee coordinates the human trafficking efforts of its members and their respective networks and alliances. It aims to create synergies and avoid duplication to ensure the most efficient and effective delivery of activities combating human trafficking. The Committee is coordinating knowledge base development and the promotion of UN.GIFT as well as providing advice on a global advocacy strategy. The Committee assesses gaps and needs to ensure that all UN.GIFT activities are relevant. In addition, it plans to develop a monitoring mechanism for UN.GIFT, including developing a set of standards and indicators.

The Steering Committee consists of representatives from the six founding members and the main donor:

The International Labour Organization (ILO), the International Organization for Migration (IOM), the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), and a representative of HRH the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi.
