A/HRC/38/45 (b) Adopt proactive protection measures based on the best interest of the child in line with international law, as well as Committee on the Rights of the Child general comment No. 14 (2013) on the right of the child to have his or her best interests taken as a primary consideration, including by appointing properly trained and resourced guardians and establishing measures for protection and transition to adulthood; (c) Ensure that a child-sensitive age assessment is performed only in cases of doubt regarding the child’s age. In case of uncertainty, the person should be considered a child. 75. In order to improve the identification of trafficked children or those at risk at airports and sea and land border crossings, States should enhance coordination among law enforcement officials and entities such as airline staff, other transport providers, child protection services and those who work with other vulnerable groups. 76. With regard to the identification of victims and potential victims from among the asylum-seeking population States should: (a) Integrate identification of trafficking victims and potential victims into asylum procedures, including in the context of accelerated procedures; (b) In accordance with the UNHCR Guidelines on International Protection No. 7, consider trafficking in the country of origin, destination or transit, and the risk of trafficking, re-trafficking or reprisals from traffickers, as grounds to be granted international protection; (c) Develop regular coordination between the asylum procedures and the trafficking protection systems in order to ensure that people identified as at risk of trafficking during asylum procedures are referred to the trafficking protection system and — when both grounds are recognized — have access to both refugee status and protection as victims or potential victims of trafficking. 77. With regard to the identification of victims and potential victims in return procedures, States should ensure that risks of trafficking and re-trafficking are adequately evaluated when a decision is made on return, including if the person is returned to the first country of arrival or a third country, and ensure that no person, regardless of their status, is returned to a place where there are substantial grounds to believe that they would be at risk of being subject to torture or other cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment, or other serious human rights violations, including a risk of being trafficked or subject to reprisals from the traffickers and their networks. 78. With regard to cooperation and referral mechanisms, States should: (a) Establish cooperation mechanisms for referral of victims of trafficking in persons and clearly determine the roles and responsibilities of all stakeholders within the mechanism, including coordination between international organizations and national and local protection services. Ensure assistance is provided unconditionally, and is non-discriminatory, culturally appropriate, gender-responsive and sensitive to disability and age; (b) Reinforce or create mobile multidisciplinary teams for identification and referral of trafficking victims or potential victims, the composition of which can be adapted to the circumstances of the case; (c) Develop or strengthen measures to ensure coordination and referral between different protection systems, including protection against trafficking, child protection and international protection. Ensure that such measures are promptly implemented upon disembarkation and during the registration and reception procedures. 79. National and local social authorities and civil society organizations should be involved in procedures to detect trafficking cases and indications of the risk of trafficking, as well as in the organization of assistance, protection and support for 19
