In 2011, the Programme organized and supported several capacity-building and training seminars for law enforcement officials, using amongst others, training modules it developed based on ODIHR's 2008 Study on "Compensation for Trafficked and Exploited Persons in the OSCE Region". Training seminars and workshops took place in Albania, Poland, Turkey and Uzbekistan. The seminars aimed at ensuring that policies and measures addressing human trafficking comply with human rights standards and that all practitioners involved, including law enforcement officials, are better equipped to protect the rights of trafficked persons. This includes greater understanding on the part of law enforcement officials of their role to inform trafficked persons and presumed trafficking victims about human rights, as well as referring them to assistance providers. In 2012, ODIHR will publish a Guide on Human Rights Protection in the Return of Trafficked Persons, which will provide further guidance for the work of law enforcement agencies and other criminal justice officials, as they are often involved in developing and implementing return measures affecting the rights of trafficked persons. Preventing and Combating Violence against Women ODIHR supports the development of legal and policy frameworks to prevent and combat violence against women, including domestic violence. In 2011, ODIHR continued to provide expertise to OSCE field operations in their activities to enhance legislative frameworks on violence against women, as well as improve the capacities of law enforcement bodies, government institutions and civil society to address this human rights abuse. To this end, ODIHR maintained and continued to expand its database of experts on combating violence against women from law enforcement agencies, state authorities and civil society. Roma and Sinti Issues In 2011, ODIHR’s Contact Point on Roma and Sinti Issues (CPRSI) continued its work promoting the improvement of relations between the police and Roma and Sinti in cooperation with the OSCE Strategic Police Matters Unit. The OSCE manual Police and Roma and Sinti: Building Trust and Understanding was launched in Bucharest, Romania on 7-8 July and in Budapest, Hungary on 8 November in follow-up to the recommendations of the 2010 ODIHR field assessment report on Hungary. So far the manual has been translated into English, Russian, Albanian, Romanian, Serbian and Hungarian.25 In addition, in 2011 ODIHR CPRSI commissioned the translation of the publication into Slovak to prepare activities promoting police and Roma relations in Slovakia in 2012. Training Against Hate Crime for Law Enforcement (TAHCLE) Following the evaluation of ODIHR’s Law Enforcement Officer Programme (LEOP) in 2009, ODIHR has been working on the revision of the methodology and the materials of the programme. In this framework, ODIHR consulted police experts from throughout the OSCE region on 15 May 2011 on its programme Training against Hate Crime for Law Enforcement (TAHCLE). Fourteen law enforcement experts discussed the methodology and content of the TAHCLE, as well as upcoming priorities of the programme. TAHCLE is the successor of LEOP. It is tailored to the needs and experiences of each country with the aim of being integrated with other training efforts. TAHCLE draws on existing resources and curricula of police training institutions and can be delivered directly to police or 25 130 http://www.osce.org/odihr/67843
