Summary
This project aims to disrupt IWT networks in Bolivia and Peru by embedding financial investigation and asset recovery into IWT enforcement practice, building on the successful application of asset recovery techniques to combat organised crime and corruption in Latin America. Activities:
1. Mentor environmental crime prosecutors to use a follow-the-money approach.
2. Galvanise peer-based training for specialised prosecutors and investigators.
3. Facilitate cross-border and public-private information flows to disrupt trans-national environmental criminals.
