Last week, our Project Officer Valentina C. was invited back as a panellist for the online launch event of the Mekong-US Partnership Track 1.5 Policy Dialogue on Trafficking and Cyber-Enabled Crime Summary Report. The summary report provides an outline of discussions and recommendations that emerged from the policy dialogue earlier this year, attended by our Survivor Empowerment Officer, Abdus Salam, and Valentina. They both presented in sessions on cyber-enabled crime, highlighting the unprecedented rise of human trafficking for forced scam labour. In the summary launch event, Valentina further addressed the issue, delving into some recommendations for countering this crime. These include the need for improved digital literacy and capacity to use digital evidence in court, increased embassy intervention and understanding of forced criminality, along with enhanced cross-sector collaboration and information sharing in the region. The event also saw insightful discussion from fellow panellists and keynote speakers on the role of the media in countering human trafficking, wildlife trafficking, and the challenges of corruption in regard to such crimes. We would like to thank the The Stimson Center for coordinating the Partnership conferences and online events. Such instances bring together government institutions, private sector, media, NGOs, and civil society alike to generate affirmative action and policy change to combat trafficking and forced scam labour. A warm thank you also goes to the fellow panellists and keynote speakers for their tireless contributions in countering all forms of trafficking. If you missed the summary discussion event you can watch it here: https://lnkd.in/eSPb3i5G The full summary report can be found here: https://lnkd.in/eJ5bdcyQ #countertrafficking #humantrafficking #scammingcompounds

🇲🇲 According to the 2023 Global Organized Crime Index, #Myanmar has the highest levels of criminality in the world and some of the lowest levels of resilience to organized crime. Three years on from the coup, this widening gap is a concerning development that needs to be scrutinised by the international community.

The index reveals that South Africa grapples with more than one form of organised crime. These include human, arms, organ and drug trafficking, child labour, labour exploitation, domestic servitude and child brides. These forms of organised crime have created thriving criminal markets that are supported by the influence of criminal actors – responsible for years of state capture – and criminal networks that are highly interconnected.
South Africa ranked seventh in the world, third in Africa among countries with most organised crime

In 2024, major court cases and crimefighting tactics are set to highlight how contradictory South Africa’s government is — with aspects of state corruption driving crime, and other parts of the state trying to fight it.
State of contradictions: Brace for South Africa’s 2024 political tugs-of-war, and the SAPS’s conundrum of fighting and fuelling crime and corruption
