The Thailand Counter Trafficking in Persons project commissioned this study to understand why, despite the efforts and benefits, only three (3) organizations in Thailand have successfully registered privately-run protection centers for survivors of human trafficking with the Division of Antitrafficking in Persons (DATIP). The report provides actionable recommendations, including alternative policies or initiatives to promote the welfare and protection of TIP survivors in Thailand. The research points toward the challenges faced by GOs and NGOs, and seeks to strengthen and improve countertrafficking efforts, including addressing recommendations of the annual U.S. Department of State’s Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report.
