UNODC- United Nations Office on drugs and crime
Agenda: “Combating Transnational drug trafficking and illicit drug production”
For two decades, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has been helping make the world safer from drugs, organised crime, corruption and terrorism. We are committed to achieving health, security and justice for all by tackling these threats and promoting peace and sustainable well-being as deterrents to them.
Because the scale of these problems is often too great for states to confront alone, UNODC offers practical assistance and encourages transnational approaches to action. We do this in all regions of the world through our global programmes and network of field offices.
The Office is committed to supporting Member States in implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at its core. The 2030 Agenda clearly recognizes that the rule of law and fair, effective and humane justice systems, as well as health-oriented responses to drug use, are both enablers for and part of sustainable development
The UNODC seeks to increase global cooperation in the fight against illicit drug manufacturing, trafficking, and drug-related crime as well as to raise awareness of the risks associated with drug usage. UNODC has initiated a variety of measures to accomplish these goals, including alternatives to the growing of illegal drug crops, monitoring of illicit crops, and the execution of projects. In order, to reinforce the rule of law, promote stable and functional criminal justice systems, and combat the rising challenges of transnational organised crime and corruption, the UNODC also strives to increase crime prevention and aid with criminal justice reform. The General Assembly authorised an increased plan of activity for UNODC's Terrorism Prevention Branch in 2002. The operations are centred on assisting states that have requested help in ratifying and implementing the eighteen global legal instruments against terrorism.
