This proposal for the reinforcement of the Daphne Programme for 2007-2013 deserves our unqualified support. In my own country, we have in recent years, had to deal with many instances of unacceptable physical, sexual and psychological violence perpetrated against children, young people and women.
The recent killing of two innocent young children in Liège turns one’s stomach when one considers those perfidious acts. Organisations such as Child Focus, the European Federation for Missing and Sexually Exploited Children, the European Network of Ombudsmen for Children (ENOC) and the countless national and operational NGOs are doing a great job. Authors such as Chris De Stoop have shown us the coarse reality of human trafficking and forced prostitution. Despite the efforts made, a great deal remains to be done. It is also becoming increasingly clear that more attention will need to go to the situation of street children who not only become the victim of drug and human traffickers, but also suffer from violence and sexual abuse.
Accordingly, the Daphne Programme ensures that Europe is not a far-flung event, but offers concrete help to the weakest in our society. Everyone must continue to fight those who, lacking in any moral scruple, exploit, humiliate and even kill those who are least able to defend themselves. Human dignity must come first."@en1
