Summary

This project will strengthen Mongolia’s border law enforcement capacity, enable inter-agency intelligence sharing and empower border communities to combat IWT and associated cross-border criminality, including human-trafficking. Key activities include targeted training, equipping, and performance-based incentivisation of Border Detector Dog units, and associated law enforcement staff at three prioritised pilot sites; establishing a national Wildlife Crime Control Task Force, to promote effective inter-agency and transnational intelligence sharing; and developing Community Surveillance Networks, increasing awareness, and reporting of IWT and associated criminality.
