Regional Project on fighting drugs and organised crime (EU-ACT)
Project Description
Specific Objective
- To contribute to the prevention and effective fight against organised crime, including the illicit trafficking in drugs, along the so-called “Heroin Route”.
The specific objective is:
- To reinforce the due process-compliant capacities of countries along the different variants of the so-called "Heroin Route" from/to Afghanistan to better address drug-related organised crime and build meaningful trust and networking amongst them that will enable them to cooperate (trans-) regionally. Expected Results
Component 2: Elaboration, set up and implementation of the Technical Assistance Facility (TAF). It will enable short-term transfer of knowledge, practices and experience to support partner countries and (regional) organisations in improving different aspects of their drug policies and response in a holistic manner both regarding drug-supply and drug-demand reduction aspects as well as relevant cross-cutting issues, corresponding to their national and/or institutional priorities and needs. This is implemented, on demand, in the same regions as the Key countries.
Component 3: Identification and implementation of Cooperation Initiatives (COPI). Involves the implementation of small-scaled (trans-)regional co-operation initiatives, which can be linked to both NAPOR & TAF, or be delivered as separate “stand-alone” events. This component aims to lay the grounds and to support operational trans-regional cooperation, i.e. real operations.Project map
