CRIMJUST, a global program by UNODC, strengthens transnational investigations, promotes joint criminal justice actions and fosters international cooperation in criminal justice matters in order to dismantle organized crime networks along illicit trafficking routes on a global scale, with a focus on Latin America and the Caribbean, Africa and Europe.

To sustainably target transnational organized crime networks, special emphasis is placed on the promotion of post-seizure investigations and the identification of high-level criminal targets.

Implemented since 2016, CRIMJUST is part of the Global Programme on Criminal Network Disruption (GPCD) of the UNODC Border Management Branch (BMB).
