About the program
The ASEAN–Australia Counter Trafficking program (ASEAN-ACT) continues Australia’s long running collaboration with ASEAN and its Member States to counter human trafficking in the region. The program is a ten-year investment (2018 to 2028) principally working to strengthen the justice sector response to trafficking in persons, while advancing the rights of victims. The program has established partnerships with government agencies, civil society, and business. It engages with all ASEAN Member States in some capacity and has national-level programming in Cambodia, Lao PDR, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam. We are establishing programming in Indonesia.
ASEAN-ACT supports ASEAN Member States to integrate gender equality, disability and social inclusion (GEDSI) and protect the rights of victims of trafficking. The program has developed GEDSI and victim rights strategies to provide a conceptual framework and practical implementation approach to analyse and respond to GEDSI and victim rights challenges in countering trafficking.
Program outcomes
The overarching goal that ASEAN-ACT will contribute to is that ASEAN Member States have effective justice systems that provide just punishment of traffickers and protect the rights of victims.
Three end-of-program outcomes together contribute to the achievement of this goal by 2028:
