The United Nations has announced that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has made remarkable strides in its continuing momentum toward the elimination of human trafficking and has solidified its reputation as a regional and global leader.
A high-ranking UN official complimented the UAE’s integrated model that combines strong laws, robust enforcement, and extensive victim protection. The recognition demonstrates the UAE’s continual commitment to advancing the human right to dignity for all by creating institutional approaches that prosecute perpetrators and protect victims.
The UAE’s leadership in combating human trafficking is attributed to its national approach, consisting of an integrated policy and legislative framework. The UAE has created dedicated task forces and specialised units of prosecution to ensure that each case of trafficking is handled by a dedicated team utilising all of the national laws and processes.
The UAE continues to implement awareness programs aimed at prevention, such as in specific sectors and among migrant workers. Through comprehensive monitoring, routine inspections, and public awareness campaigns, the UAE has positioned itself as an effective force in the fight against exploitation.
Compassion is at the forefront of the UAE’s approach. Victims are in need of rehabilitation, not punishment; thus, the UAE has developed several victim support centres, 24-hour hotlines, and safe shelters and facilities that provide victims with access to medical, legal, and psychological support.
These services offer empowerment and reintegration, and skills training – ensuring that victims can take the necessary steps towards rebuilding their lives in a dignified manner. The UAE’s emphasis on compassion and social protection speaks to its humanitarian commitment and is aligned with the fundamental principles of human rights.
Outside of the UAE, the country continues to engage in international partnerships of an anti-trafficking nature. The UAE works closely with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and other regional entities in support of intelligence sharing, training programs and the creation of cohesive responses to dismantle traffickers and their networks in the international framework.
This collaborative position highlights the UAE’s transformation from a domestic enforcer to a global partner in global human rights and justice reform.
The UAE’s milestones in this arena are around a wider vision, which aims to advance with compassion. The UAE continues to strengthen its architecture for a fairer society, addressing topics such as women’s empowerment, labour reform, child protection, and social inclusion.
