Agreement Value:

$4,000,000.00

Agreement Date:

Feb 14, 2025 - Mar 31, 2029

Description:

This four-year initiative (FY 24/25 to FY 28/29) – to be implemented by UNODC – will strengthen Ecuador’s capacity to prevent and combat organized crime, with a particular focus on strengthening institutional integrity in the port system and financial sectors. These focus areas have been identified as critical links to Ecuador’s safety and security to prevent the spill-over of organized crime into other jurisdictions. This project has been developed around three main pillars: Pillar 1 - Preventing and Combating Corruption Associated with Organized Crime in the Port System; Pillar 2 - Strengthening Ecuador’s Capacity to Prevent and Combat Money Laundering and Illicit Financial Flows; and Pillar 3 - Enhancing Regional and International Cooperation to Prevent and Combat Transnational Organized Crime. By enhancing Ecuador's operational and institutional capacities, this project will help to fortify the region against criminal expansion, reducing the likelihood of transnational crime networks impacting Canadian interests.
