The swift advancement of the digital era has ushered in unparalleled opportunities, but also new challenges and threats. Notably, there has been an increase in online and technology-facilitated trafficking in persons in recent years, with traffickers using social media and dating sites to prey on potential victims. Beyond trafficking, the digital landscape is witnessing a rise in cybercrimes such as extortion, internet fraud, and identity theft. These challenges pose a significant test for law enforcement agencies globally. In Fiji, the task of combating cybercrime and online trafficking is primarily undertaken by the Fiji Police Force's Human Trafficking Unit. Similarly, the Police Force’s Transnational Crimes Unit oversees these issues in Vanuatu. While both countries have made strides in addressing this challenge, recent dialogues between IOM and national authorities emphasized the need for more robust capacity development, especially in handling trafficking cases. Vis-à-vis these needs, this project has two primary goals: to enhance the capacities of law enforcement in addressing cybercrime, particularly online and technology-facilitated trafficking, and to educate communities in Fiji and Vanuatu about online threats, including trafficking. To this end, the regional approach of this project is crucial: cybercrime and trafficking are often transnational in nature, with perpetrators and victims frequently located in different countries. A project encompassing both Fiji and Vanuatu ensures a harmonized approach to these challenges, bridging gaps and aligning strategies for more cohesive efforts. Partnering with the police forces of both countries, IOM has developed two key approaches. The first, reflected in the project’s first outcome, aims at improving the management of tech-based trafficking cases by law enforcement, which will involve training, system upgrades, procuring essential equipment and fostering information sharing. The second, corresponding to the project’s second outcome, focuses on raising awareness, collaborating with relevant entities to share information on online safety and trafficking risks in targeted communities, gender, and age groups.
