The Bijlmer
Project is a research and intervention based project focusing on the psychosocial
needs that victims of human trafficking face, specifically concentrating on women who have been bought and
sold for sexual exploitation. The Bijlmer
Project is a collaboration between Webster University Leiden and the Christian
Aid and Resources Foundation (CARF).
The Bijlmer Bridge2Hope (phase 2 of the Bijlmer Project)
was launched in November of 2014 and is actively assisting survivors of human trafficking in
the Netherlands. Our program addresses the physical, psychological, behavioral,
social, and economic issues encountered by female survivors of human
trafficking.
The core purpose of the project is to empower these survivors towards economic, social and spiritual freedom. Appropriate models are
applied to equip the participants with vocational training, PTSD therapy
and self-actualization/management skills in order that they can achieve a
personal self-sustainability.
This blog will follow the progress of six women as they cross the Bridge 2 Hope. All six women are survivors of the human trafficking blight that is more rampant in today's society than most of us know...
