It aims to elaborate the substantive content of the international law on trafficking and provides a comprehensive analysis of the Principles and Guidelines, in addition to serving as a practical tool on the rights-based approach to addressing trafficking in persons. In May 2010, OHCHR organized an expert seminar for members of the HRC, seeking to identify opportunities and challenges in developing human rights-based responses to trafficking and promoting the application of the Recommended Principles and a Council plenary panel also gave voice to victims and survivors of trafficking. 61.
