Launch of the Rapid Reference Guide on Applicable Offences to Trafficking of Critically Endangered Species in Thailand

USAID Wildlife Asia Activity, in coordination with the United Nations Office of Drugs and Crime (UNODC), has developed a Rapid Reference Guide (RRG) on Applicable Offences to Trafficking of Critically Endangered Species in Thailand. Intended as a practical tool for wildlife investigators and prosecutors, the RRG contains brief descriptions of all specialized laws/regulations as well as ancillary statutes, such as anti-money laundering, tax evasion and anti-corruption.

Following the model used in the United Kingdom and a growing number of countries in Africa, the RRG is created to inform investigators/case managers about what is minimally required to build an evidential case against those accused of wildlife and related crimes. 

USAID Wildlife Asia will host a launch of the manual chaired by the Office of the Attorney General followed by a workshop facilitated by a technical expert contracted by our activity to ensure the stakeholders are provided with the appropriate instruction necessary for an effective use of the Guide.

The event will be attended by appropriate partners within the Office of the Attorney General, police, wildlife authorities, and customs.
