On 23 April 2021, the UNODC Global Firearms Programme (GFP) organized a meeting on capacity building activities within its project on Criminal Justice Response against Arms Trafficking with representatives of the Ministry of Interior (MoI) from Sector for International Cooperation, Section for Suppressing Hi-Tech Crime, and Sector for Criminal Investigations.
The objective of the event was to update the plan for delivering trainings in Serbia and present UNODC’s tools that will be used in the process. The parties updated the plans for conducting trainings on e-evidence by using UNODC’s Guide on Gathering E-evidence Across Borders, agreed upon the modality for further distribution of the Guide, and agreed to support needs assessments that will contribute towards increasing the efficiency of the investigations and addressing illicit firearms trafficking and organized crime threats.
The activities of UNODC GFP in the framework of the regional project on Criminal Justice Response against Arms Trafficking are supported under the Western Balkans SALW Control Roadmap Multi-Partner Trust Fund by Germany, UK, Netherlands, France, Sweden and Norway.
