After a successful first day with an informative and interactive workshop on child trafficking, day two of the Regional Consultation is underway. Representatives from child helplines and partners will continue the workshop today. The focus of the workshop today will be mapping the strengths, weaknesses, successes and opportunities of the situation of child helplines in the region. After this the participants will draft strategies for their child helplines and the region as a whole on child trafficking. The workshop is proving to be very fruitful. Participants are most interested and eager to participate. No doubt the results of the workshop will be improved strategies and activities of child helplines  and strengthened protection of children in the region from trafficking.

In the afternoon, the representatives will visit the child helpline centre of Yoneco Malawi in Zomba. Here, everybody can learn about the work of the child helpline in Malawi and the innovative methods that it uses. Also, child helplines can exchange experiences and information to learn and take valuable lessons back home.
