What This Grant Funds

To advance the U.S. National Strategy for Combating Wildlife Trafficking and its associated Implementation Plan, INL aims to achieve specific objectives to reduce the poaching and trafficking of wildlife through effective programming at the national, regional, and international levels in key source, transit, and destination locations in Asia, Latin America, and Africa. For this funding opportunity, INL intends to focus on Southeast Asia, since it is a key source, transit, and destination for illegal wildlife products. The program will include technical assistance to: 1) increase interdiction of illicit wildlife trade; 2) build investigative and enforcement functions; 3) enhance prosecutorial and judicial capacity; and/or 4) develop cross-border regional cooperation.

INL leverages its unique foreign assistance authorities to contribute to the global fight against wildlife trafficking. To that end, funds will support work that increases the ability of Southeast Asia to CWT. As a key source, transit, and destination for illegal wildlife products, Southeast Asia is a crucial component in the global wildlife trafficking supply chain. Therefore, efforts to stop the global scourge of wildlife trafficking must include Southeast Asia. The ultimate goal of this program is to increase Southeast Asia’s desire and ability to CWT and the criminal organizations that perpetrate this heinous crime.
