Preventing Visa Fraud and Illegal Migration

Ms. Seher Aftab attended a UNODC workshop in Malaysia on January 15-17, 2025, focusing on UNTOC implementation, and helped establish the Civil Society Regional Network for Asia (NET4U). CFHR, where Ms. Aftab works, will coordinate NET4U Asia's activities.

CFHR combats migrant smuggling in Pakistan through evidence-based policy reform, law enforcement training, and creating safe migration pathways, while addressing root causes and providing legal protection to vulnerable migrants.

CFHR tackles global crime through collaboration. We unite civil society, governments, and organizations to strengthen security responses, ensuring human rights.

CFHR's Building Community Resilience to Combat Trafficking in Persons project strengthened community-led prevention of trafficking in Lahore and Peshawar — training youth advocates and community taskforces, running 126 door-to-door awareness sessions and 12 baithaks, and reaching over half a million people through the #AwaazBano campaign.
