This report evidences the importance of having instruments at the hemispheric level, such as the Work Plan to Combat Trafficking in Persons. Within the framework of this Plan, this hemispheric exercise made it possible to take stock of the achievements and progress made by the countries and also, to identify tools, best practices and valuable experiences to share and exchange. Additionally, it facilitated the identification of pending areas and issues, gaps and needs, and even possible lines of action for the future.
