Fight against heroin trafficking

FIIAPP is collaborating with Europol in this project funded by the European Commission by organising information exchange activities between the different European security forces. These are being carried out within the framework of a grant from EMPACT (European Multidisciplinary Platform Against Criminal Threats).  The overall objective is to better understand organised crime methods in order to develop an operational action for disrupting and dismantling the activities of these groups and to reduce heroin trafficking in Europe.

Over the course of 12 months, the project will work with practical cases to address known threats and strengthen European Union borders. Three countries along the heroin route are collaborating to foster better police cooperation.
