The FIET Foundation has activated the Anti-Trafficking Helpline (ACT), a free and confidential service available year-round. It assists victims, survivors, professionals, and citizens, with translation into over 200 languages to improve the detection and referral of cases in Spain.
Real-time translation for an effective referral network 🌐
The ACT line integrates a telephone interpretation system covering over 200 languages, allowing operators to communicate with anyone without intermediaries. The service uses a digital platform that links to local and national resource databases. This enables frontline professionals and security forces to make precise referrals in minutes, without relying on external apps or improvised translators.
The bargain of calling for free and being understood in 200 languages 📞
Finally, a number to call when you get lost in the industrial estate and don't even know where you are. Of course, the service is for trafficking victims, not for asking directions to the nearest Ikea. But hey, if you speak Gujarati, Swahili, or Asturian, they'll take care of you like at home. Good thing they haven't set a language limit, because with my high school English, I can't even order a coffee.
