OSCE and UNODC offer training on countering terrorism financing in Kyrgyzstan

AKIPRESS.COM - Strengthening the capacity of government officials from Kyrgyzstan to counter terrorism financing is the aim of a three-day train-the-trainers course organized by the OSCE’s Transnational Threats Department and the UN Office on Drugs and Crime's Global Programme against Money Laundering on June 23-25 in Vienna, the OSCE reported.

The course is being held for six trainers who will go on to impart their knowledge and train, together with OSCE and UNODC international experts, to local government officials upon their return to Kyrgyzstan.

The course, which takes place at the OSCE Secretariat premises, is led by international experts and includes sessions on the terrorist finance funding cycle, foreign terrorist fighters, public-private sector co-operation, information collection and strategic analysis. There will also be discussions on localized scenarios based on real-life cases.

The event is part of the OSCE’s and UNODC’s work on countering terrorist financing, in support of the implementation of the UN Security Council Resolutions, and the OSCE Ministerial Declaration on Strengthening Good Governance and Combatting Corruption, Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism (2012), as well as the OSCE Ministerial Decision on Strengthening Good Governance and Promoting Connectivity (2016).

This course is part of a comprehensive capacity-building programme to support national efforts in Central Asia to counter terrorist financing, with a focus on analysis, investigation, and inter-agency-co-operation.
