Strengthening Regional Anti-Trafficking Cooperation through Simulation-Based Training in Central Asia

Over 130 practitioners from Central Asia and Türkiye convened on 9–13 June 2025 at Lake Issyk-Kul, Kyrgyzstan, for a five-day simulation-based regional training exercise focused on combating trafficking in human beings. Organised by the OSCE in co-operation with Kyrgyz authorities and supported by the Prague Process, the training built on the success of a similar regional simulation held in 2023 and marked a significant step forward in fostering operational collaboration and victim-centred responses to trafficking threats.
