Combating Wildlife Trafficking in Tanzania

archived

INL leverages its unique foreign assistance authorities to contribute to the global fight against wildlife trafficking. Funds will be used to provide training and other technical assistance in Tanzania to build institutional capacity for combating wildlife crime. INL will support work that builds investigative and enforcement capacity. Applications may also outline activities that enhance Tanzania’s legislative frameworks and/or prosecutorial and judicial capacity to combat wildlife poaching and trafficking. For example, activities may include training, mentoring, and possibly the provision of non-lethal equipment for park rangers, police, prosecutors, other relevant officials and, where applicable, non-governmental and civil society entities to address the multi-faceted dimensions of poaching and wildlife trafficking.
