Strategies and Practical Measures to Strengthen the Capacity of Prosecution Services in Dealing with Transnational Organized Crime, Terrorism and Corruption

One of the key objectives of this Second World Summit is to explore strategies and practical measures to strengthen the capacity of prosecution services in dealing with particularly challenging and complex forms of criminal activity, such as transnational organized crime, corruption and terrorism. Another key objective is to further strengthen international cooperation in criminal matters. The two objectives are obviously related and, in the final analysis, it is clear that the strength of international cooperation in the fight against terrorism, corruption and organized crime will always rest on the strength of existing national capacities to carry out the effective investigation and prosecution on these crimes. The present paper deals specifically with promising strategies for building or strengthening a national capacity to investigate and prosecute serious crimes, and that, to a certain extent, also touches upon the very crucial capacity of prosecution services to collaborate with and assist each other.
