Abstract
The chapter summarises key developments in the monitoring and evaluation of anti-trafficking and anti-slavery laws, policies, projects and practice since the beginning of the 21st century. It explains why monitoring and evaluation are important, distinguishing between monitoring that consists of collecting statistics, and evaluations that assess whether expected standards have been met. It presents a typology of three categories of monitoring. The authors emphasise the importance of uncovering the effects of anti-trafficking practice on trafficking victims (‘survivors’), but note that, until recently, government officials seemed to avoid seeking this feedback. The role of international monitoring bodies, such as the Council of Europe’s Group of Experts on Action Against Trafficking in Human Beings (GRETA) and national-level monitoring by a government-appointed (but independent) rapporteur is described. A series of evaluations are illustrated, noting the importance of assessing the effects of assistance on individuals, as well as assessing an individual organisation’s performance. The chapter concludes by documenting how a lack of investment in monitoring and evaluation has undermined the effectiveness of attempts to improve anti-trafficking work. Despite the monitoring activities of countless regional and international organisations operating in Europe, national anti-trafficking and anti-slavery systems have been slow to make necessary improvements.
