Summary/Abstract: This article addresses the subject of human rights and particularly the extremely sensitive one of human trafficking, presenting some historical references on the matter and the current state of affairs, as well as the involvement of Romanian NGOs in the fight against this phenomenon. The economic drivers of migrant exploitation and human trafficking are also investigated. This paper highlights some measures and actions taken by the authorities and NGOs in Romania in their effort to raise awareness of the phenomenon, to prevent it and to counterattack these forms of human rights violations, as well as to help people who are actual or potential victims of human trafficking to get out of the respective situations and reintegrate into society.
