About

The Innovations in Addressing Child Trafficking (IACT) Program is combating child sex trafficking in the provinces of Guanacaste and Puntarenas. The IACT Program works to protect and assist child and adolescent trafficking victims, strengthen the prosecution of trafficking crimes, and prevent the sexual exploitation of children and adolescents.

IACT is being implemented by The Warnath Group from 2020-2025 in close collaboration with the Government of Costa Rica and civil society organizations, through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Department of State Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (J/TIP). The Warnath Group is an organization specialized in evidence-based programs to address human trafficking, including child trafficking.

The aim of the Learning Hub is to provide information that is applicable to the various real-world roles and responsibilities of Costa Rican practitioners who wish to make a constructive contribution to addressing trafficking in persons and protecting child and adolescent trafficking victims.
