This PIO grant to INTERPOL funds the Combating Environmental Crime grant. The grant builds on the previous Project PREDATOR (tiger and snow leopard conservation) to include a wider range of environmental crimes addressed by Interpol's Environmental Security Sub-Directorate. In addition to PREDATOR, support is anticipated for Project SCALE (illegal fishing), Project WISDOM (elephant ivory and rhino horn), and Project LEAF (illegal timber). The broadened scope recognizes that many of the same criminal syndicates involved in tiger and snow leopard trafficking are also engaged in transcontinental trafficking in ivory, rhino horn, timber, etc.

Breakthrough-ACTION will use state-of-the-art, evidence-based tools to encourage people in developing countries to adopt healthy behaviors, from using modern contraceptive methods to sleeping under bed nets to being tested for HIV. Much of the work will harness the power of communication - from mass media campaigns to TV and radio dramas to simple posters in a health clinic - to inspire long-lasting change. The project will also take advantage of other behavioral science approaches such as behavioral economics and human-centered design to improve programs. The program - which builds on a prior five-year, 31-country project called the Health Communication Capacity Collaborative (HC3) - is expected to be double the size. It will be led by CCP who will partner with Save the Children, ideas42, ThinkPlace Kenya and Camber Collective. Breakthrough-ACTION will also be supported in the field by ActionSprout, the International Center for Research on Women and Human Network International. CCP is based at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
