Trilateral Transborder Wildlife Interception (TTWI )

The purpose of this project is to reduce illegal trafficking in wildlife products, particularly for rhinos and tigers. Project will provide support for training of Customs personnel on Nepal-lndia and Nepal-China border crossings and improve capacity for investigating potential wildlife trafficking incidents and building wildlife trafficking prosecution cases, and improved relationships and commitment among border Customs officials will lead to better interdictions of wildlife products on those border crossings. Training will also be provided on building wildlife trafficking prosecution cases between key customs personnel and wildlife crime law enforcement personnel, including criminal investigators and prosecutors from Nepal, China and India, and relationships strengthened between these key Customs personnel and wildlife crime law enforcement personnel from Nepal, China and India.
