Thirty police commanders from across Belize have completed the “Trafficking in Persons: Identification and Investigation Training” at the National Police Training Academy. The session was conducted by the Human Rights Institute and covered trafficking in persons identifiers, as well as other topics. The training is part of an ongoing initiative to ensure that police officers are well-equipped to identify and investigate cases of human trafficking effectively. The participants also had hands-on approach and use of real-world scenarios on the issue. The police department says it plans to conduct training sessions on the same topic with officers of various ranks across the country as well.
