La Strada Bulgaria

Animus Association - La Strada Bulgaria

ANIMUSSince 1998, Animus Association implements the La Strada Programme in Bulgaria. The priority of Animus Association is the development of a Centre for rehabilitation, counselling and psychotherapy for women, adolescents and children survivors of violence. It lobbies for legislation change, as well as for changes to the social and health system with respect to the needs of women, adolescents and children victims and survivors of violence.

Animus/La Strada Bulgaria activities focus on the areas of Information and Lobby; Prevention and Education (with a special emphasis on minors in all its campaigns); and Social (Direct) Assistance (including legal, social, medical and psychological assistance). The organisation runs a Crisis Unit that provides short-term accommodation. Minor survivors of trafficking are included as a target group in the Animus/La Strada Bulgaria campaigns on social assistance and prevention. A new model of work that takes into account their specific age-related needs and trauma experience is also being developed by this organisation. The “Animus” Training Centre disseminates an original model of work based on an in-depth understanding of the trauma from violence.

La Strada Česká Republika

LA STRADA CZECH REPUBLICLa Strada Czech Republic (La Strada Ceska Republika o.p.s.) has been registered as an independent non-governmental organisation since 1998. La Strada Czech Republic is one of the founding members of La Strada and began its work in 1995.

La Strada Czech Republic has developed a multi-disciplinary approach programme to fight against human trafficking, which consists of 3 campaigns:

  • Information & Lobby
  • Prevention & Education
  • Social Assistance

It is a bottom-up program in which direct contact with trafficked persons provides invaluable experience, skills and information applicable in prevention and lobby work. Trafficked persons are not only informed of the risks of trafficking through Prevention & Education Campaign, but they are also supported to recover from traumatic experience and build up a new life through the Social Assistance Campaign. Finally, the Information & Lobby Campaign advocates for their reintegration into society as well as the acknowledgement that trafficking in persons is a severe violation of human rights and a serious criminal offence that has to be adequately addressed. All the activities of the organisation stem from several basic principles: respect for human rights, equal opportunities, non-discriminatory approach, empowerment and protection of interests in trafficked persons.
