Guidelines for Repatriation and Reintegration: Supporting Survivors of Forced Criminality

We’re excited to introduce “Guidelines for Repatriation and Reintegration: Supporting Survivors of Forced Criminality”, a comprehensive resource developed by Asia Freedom Network. This resource will help equip local CSOs and communities in repatriated countries with the tools to support the reintegration of survivors. 

This manual is divided into four volumes to address every step of the process:

Volumes 1 & 2: Practical Guidelines for Reintegration 

Volume 3: Shame, Anger & Trauma – Advanced Guidelines for Survivor Support

Volume 4: Practical Steps to Implementation

This guide is a collaborative framework, enabling communities to strengthen their capacity and provide trauma-informed, culturally relevant support for survivors, ensuring their successful reintegration. 

The journey of reintegration is complex, and we’re glad for the expertise and insight that helped create a helpful tool to utilise along the way. 

We are grateful to have the opportunity to join the contributors and editors who made this manual possible.
