Bureau of International Narcotics-Law Enforcement

Description

INL/EA seeks to fund projects that build criminal justice sector capacity to deter, investigate, and prosecute wildlife crime in the East Asia and Pacific region. The proposal scope may also include money-laundering, corruption, illegal logging, and other crime areas that aid wildlife trafficking networks. The project proposals should identify gaps, determine strategies to address those gaps, and if applicable, build upon existing and previous efforts in countries. INL will also consider promising and innovative pilot and research projects. Projects may encompass training, technical assistance and equipment for law enforcement, prosecutors, judges, and policymakers and may target regulatory and legislative responses, specific aspects of the patrol, investigation, or prosecution process, and specific geographic regions, species, and/or industries. Both marine and terrestrial species and landscapes may be included. Proposed projects should be detailed in their approach, implementation plan, partners, and geographic regions. The technical evaluation panel will prioritize projects that include one or more of the countries identified as focus countries in the 2017 Eliminate, Neutralize, and Disrupt (END) Wildlife Trafficking Act report (https://www.state.gov/e/oes/rls/rpts/275703.htm).
