Setting up a temporary shelter for trafficking victims to stay in other countries can be complex, but fortunately there are organizations that specialize in helping victims of this nature. For example, International Organization for Migration (IOM) is an intergovernmental organization which assists migrants and other people who need help either due to forced displacement or involuntary travel. The organization provides humanitarian assistance and advice through a network of 104 field offices in 48 countries. There may be similar organizations in the country where you are hoping to set up the temporary shelter as well, which can provide valuable assistance. It is important that potential hosting locations are properly vetted and registered with an internationally recognized refugee agency such as UNHCR.

Unfortunately, setting up a temporary shelter to house trafficking victims is not as straightforward as it may sound. Setting up a proper facility with the necessary protocols in place requires tremendous planning, organization and resources. Furthermore, countries may have laws in place that restrict the operation of unlicensed shelters or impose other regulations concerning short-term housing for refugees. In order to establish a safe and legal space for trafficking victims to stay while they await legal proceedings, you should thoroughly research local policies, identify appropriate partners in the country who can help execute your plan and seek additional guidance or support from organizations that have experienced success in this field.
