The illegal trade and flow of people, goods and substances occurring in Africa have an impact beyond the continent’s borders, as shown by rising irregular migration and illicit financial flows into Europe.
Key findings from the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organised Crime’s (GI-TOC) Organised Crime Index will set the scene for a deep dive into Africa’s drug and environmental crime markets, drawing on empirical research and criminal intelligence analysis. Illicit flows from the continent into Europe will also be explored, along with cross-regional responses.
