Illegal wildlife trafficking: Joint industry guidelines
This document describes the background for, and introduces joint industry guidelines on illegal wildlife trafficking. The objective of the joint industry guidelines is to support and further promote the uptake of the Guidelines approved by FAL 46 by providing specific and actionable guidance to all parties in the maritime industry. As such, the joint industry guidelines may also be seen as a response to the call in Assembly resolution A.1190(33) for submissions to the Maritime Safety Committee and the Facilitation Committee in respect of organized crime in the maritime sector.
