中国 -2020年12月10-11日，国际移民组织和公安部打拐办在中国北京共同举办了跨国合作打击跨国犯罪研讨会：人口贩运案件侦查、起诉和定罪经验交流。此研讨会在欧盟资助的第二期支持中欧人员往来和移民领域对话项目（MMSP II）的框架下进行，为期三年的欧盟项目继续在中欧人员往来和移民领域对话过程中为中欧利益相关方提供技术支持和协助。
由于新冠肺炎引起的旅行限制，该活动以现场和在线相结合的形式举办，中国参会者聚集在北京会议室，与来自欧洲国家的参会者通过在线方式开展交流。11名来自中国公安部打拐办和省级层面打拐机构的警察，以及最高人民检察院的高级检察官和最高人民法院的高级法官参加了研讨会。此活动为中欧官员提供了一个平台，讨论涉及中国和外国犯罪者和受害者的人口贩运案件的侦查、起诉和定罪等有关问题。来自保加利亚、荷兰、德国和英国驻华使馆的代表也出席了该活动，并与中国参会者进行交流，探讨可能的执法对策以应对中欧之间的人口贩运问题。
国际移民组织驻华代表柯吉佩先生在其开幕致辞中讲到：“由于新冠疫情爆发，人口贩运成为人们关注的焦点，这对脆弱的移民造成了不成比例的影响，使他们更有可能沦为国内和跨国有组织犯罪网络中贩运者的牺牲品。”公安部打拐办主任刘景杰先生提到，所有国家在处理跨国人口贩运案件时面临着相似挑战，所以需要各个执法机构的更强有力的合作。欧盟移民与内部事务总司有组织犯罪和毒品政策部门政策官员Elisaveta Voynova女士强调打击人口贩运是欧盟的工作重点，欧盟将继续在打击犯罪威胁的多学科平台的支持下，像欧洲刑警组织（EUROPOL）、EMPACT机制，与中国有关机构一起打击此类犯罪。
来自保加利亚、法国、德国、意大利、荷兰和英国的专家通过远程方式向中方介绍了国际合作在打击具体人口贩运案件中的作用、转介机制、为人口贩运受害者提供支持的做法，与外国有关机构进行接触和合作的方式，国际合作工具和经验教训。中方了解到欧洲国家的对策和技术，以及对犯罪分子的调查、起诉和定罪过程中存在的挑战。中国公安部打拐办、最高人民检察院和最高人民法院的发言人也介绍了中国打击人口贩运体制、趋势，以及犯罪、政策和运作发展特征。他们还向欧洲发言者提出了许多问题，以澄清案例研究中涉及的问题（例如，对罪犯定罪的特殊性）。
研讨会中讨论并强调，各国共同努力并交换有关嫌疑人的信息，才能成功地将罪犯定罪。此类犯罪变得越来越有利可图，大家仍需付出很多努力。随着新技术的发展，犯罪网络正变得更有效和暴力。同样，新冠肺炎对犯罪网络作案手法的影响仍不清楚，但无疑会使犯罪更隐蔽。国际社会只有通过深入合作，建立必要的法律（例如司法互助条约；不同执法机构之间的谅解备忘录，引渡条约）和运作框架（例如依靠国际刑警组织或欧洲司法组织等专门机构，在国外维持稳定的移民或警察联络官平台，与伙伴国家保持畅通的联系，并建立联合调查组）才能与此犯罪抗争。
此网络研讨会之前，国际移民组织在MMSP II项目下组织了另外两项活动。一个是“移民体制及相关政策法规会议”，这是国际移民组织和中国国家移民管理局11月26-27日在北京组织的网络研讨会，来自中央和省级层面的32名中国移民官员参加了该会议。欧洲和其政府官员以及学术/私营部门的专家向中国参会者介绍了进入和居住在他们各自国家的合法途径以及相关政策和法规。这项活动加强了对各自移民模式的了解，并为探讨中欧在移民法领域的进一步合作奠定了良好的基础。该网络研讨会使中方官员了解了德国和荷兰的移民政策和法律。第一天的活动从政府视角进行了介绍，第二天，来自这些国家马斯特里赫特大学和Manzel-Yerlikaya律师事务所的代表提供了更深入的信息。这种交流方式使大家更多了解了有关德国和荷兰政策和法律的官方信息，以及在实施方面的实际经验。
第二个是2020年10月28-30日国际移民组织与中国国家移民管理局共同为欧盟成员国驻华代表们组织的赴江苏省南京和苏州的实地考察活动。代表团成员包括来自奥地利、保加利亚、法国、德国、匈牙利、荷兰、葡萄牙的领事、签证官和移民联络官以及国际移民组织员工。这次实地访问活动使中欧官员直接交流了中国在新冠疫情期间的边检和外国人管理工作。它不仅使大家了解了南京国际机场和移民服务中心的工作程序和体制，还在该省大学和外国公司中为欧盟成员国代表与中国同行提供了难得的机会，讨论新冠疫情期间外国人管理面临的挑战和向他们提供的相关服务。中欧建立的工作网络为在江苏省进一步开展边检和外国人管理方面的交流奠定了基础。

A3.1 – Seminar oncross-country cooperation to fight transnational organized crime: experiences of investigation, prosecution and conviction of trafficking in human beings’ casesA1.2 – Technical meeting on immigration systems: policies and regulationsA1.3 - Field visit for EU Member States Representatives. Nanjing and Suzhou, Jiangsu provinceChina -A “Seminar on cross-country cooperation to fight transnational organized crime: experiences of investigation, prosecution and conviction of trafficking in human beings’ cases” took place on 10-11 December 2020 in Beijing, China. It was jointly organized by the International Organization of Migration (IOM) and Office to Combat Trafficking, Ministry of Public Security (MPS OCT) under the framework of the European Union-funded EU-China Dialogue on Migration and Mobility Support Project Phase II (MMSP II). This three-year project continues to provide support and technical assistance to Chinese and EU stakeholders under the EU-China Dialogue on Migration and Mobility.Due to travel restrictions related to COVID-19, the event was held combining a mixed in-person and online format, with participants in China gathering in a meeting room in Beijing and participants in European countries connected online. 11 Chinese police officers of MPS OCT at central and provincial level, a senior prosecutor from the Supreme People’s Procuratorate (SPP) and a senior judge from the Supreme People’s Court (SPC) attended this activity, which aimed to offer a platform for Chinese and European officials to discuss current issues related to investigation, prosecution and conviction of trafficking of human beings’ cases involving Chinese and foreign perpetrators and victims. Representatives from Bulgarian, Dutch, French, German, Italian and British Embassy in Beijing took part in this activity to communicate with Chinese participants, strengthen working relationships with them, and explore possible law enforcement responses to trafficking of human beings between EU and China. In his opening remarks, IOM China Chief of Mission, Giuseppe Crocetti, said that “human trafficking has come under the spotlight due to COVID-19 outbreak, which has had a disproportionate impact on vulnerable migrants at higher risk of falling prey to traffickers within domestic and transnational organized crime networks”.MPS OCT’s Director LIU Jingjie mentioned that all countries are facing a similar challenge of handling cross-countries trafficking cases, and this highlights the need for strong cooperation among law enforcement agencies.Ms Elisaveta Voynova, Policy officer of the European Commission Directorate General Migration and Home Affairs emphasized that fighting against trafficking of human being is a priority for the EU and the EU will continue to work with Chinese authorities to fight against this crime with the support of platforms against criminal threats such as EUROPOL and EMPACT. Experts from Bulgaria, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and the UK connected remotely informed the Chinese side about the role of international cooperation in combating specific trafficking cases. Speakers introduced their referral mechanisms, practices to support victims of trafficking of human beings, modalities of engagement of and cooperation with foreign countries’ relevant authorities, international cooperation tools and lessons learned. The Chinese side got acquainted with European national responses and techniques, as well as with challenges that still persist during the investigation, prosecution and conviction of criminals. Chinese presenters from MPS OCT, SPP and SPC introduced the Chinese counter-trafficking system, trends characterizing the crime and policy and operational developments in China. They also addressed many questions to the speakers to clarify aspects exposed in the case studies (e.g. specificities of the conviction of criminals).The seminar emphasized that successful conviction of criminals is achieved when countries work together and exchange information about suspected people. Much efforts are still needed as the crime becomes more and more lucrative. With the development of new technologies, criminal networks are becoming more effective and violent. Also, the impact of COVID-19 on the modus operandi of criminal networks is still unclear but has certainly made the crime more invisible yet existing. The international community can fight it only through deep cooperation to build the necessary legal (e.g. treaties of mutual legal assistance; Memoranda of Understanding between different law enforcement agencies, extradition treaties) and the operational frameworks (e.g. relying on specialized agencies such as INTERPOL or EUROJUST, maintaining a solid platform of immigration or police liaison officers abroad to maintain fluid connection with partner countries and establishing Joint Investigation Teams).The webinar was preceded by two other events organized by IOM under the MMSP II. The first one was the “Technical meeting on immigration systems: policies and regulations”, a webinar organized by the IOM and the Chinese National Immigration Administration (NIA) on 26-27 November in Beijing, attended by 32 Chinese immigration officials from central and provincial levels. EU and Government officials, as well as two academia/private sector experts informed Chinese participants about licit pathways to enter and reside in their respective countries, and the policies and regulations behind those. This activity improved the familiarity with respective immigration models and laid a good basis for further cooperation between EU and China in the area of immigration law.In particular, the webinar allowed Chinese NIA’s Policy and Legal Department to get acquainted with the immigration policies and laws of Germany and the Netherlands. In the first day, the government perspective was presented, while in the second day, more in-depth information was provided by representatives of Maastricht University and Manzel-Yerlikaya law firm from these countries. This approach enriched the official information about the Dutch and German policies and laws with practical experience on their implementation.The second event was a field visit jointly organized by IOM with NIA, for EU Member States representatives to Nanjing and Suzhou, Jiangsu province, on 28-30 October 2020. The delegation included consuls, visa officers and migration liaison officers from the Embassies of Austria, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Hungary, the Netherlands, Portugal, as well as IOM China staff. This field visit provided an opportunity for EU and Chinese officials to directly communicate about immigrationin spection and foreigners’ administration in Nanjing and Suzhou during COVID-19. In addition of being a learning opportunity about Chinese procedures and systems applied at the Nanjing international airport and in Immigration Service Centers, this visit represented a unique chance for EU Member States representatives to openly discuss with Chinese counterparts about challenges related to management of foreign nationals and provision of services to foreigners, including in universities and within foreign firms located in the province in time of COVID-19. The network established between European and Chinese side lays a foundation for further exchanges and communications in the area of immigration inspection and administration of foreigners in Jiangsu province.
