Summary/Abstract: Adopted on May 3rd, 2005, following several initiatives from the Council of Europe, the Convention on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings is, even now, the most comprehensive European tool for combating and preventing trafficking in human beings. Since the ratification of the Convention on August 21st, 2006, the Romanian authorities have adopted several efective measures to prevent and combat trafficking in human beings, by periodically updating anti trafficking legislation and adopting new le¬gislation in the field, by creating an institutional framework for action against trafficking, and by introducing a national identification and recommendation mechanisms. This arti¬cle aims to analyse the progress that our country has made in the fight against this terrible crime, and especially the way in which it has fulfilled its obligations at a European level.
