Nineteen officers from state agencies participating in counter-drug operations, namely, Ministry of Internal Affairs, State Customs Service and Drug Control Agency will be trained in detection of chemical precursors and drugs.
This three-day training session has been arranged by the EU-UNDP Border Management in Central Asia (BOMCA) Programme and the International Centre for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD).
A trainer from the European Union will present global trends in precursors’ seizures and routes to explain participants how countries are affected and how they respond, threat assessment, international monitoring and legal control of precursors globally, in Central Asia and in the European Union.
Participants of the training will get practical knowledge in handling precursors, such as safe management of suspect consignments during border and customs checks.
The overall objectives of BOMCA are to help increase security in the Central Asian region, to contribute toward the facilitation of legitimate trade and transit, and to reduce the illicit movement of goods and people.
The BOMCA Programme is funded by the European Union and implemented by UNDP with ICMPD as an implementing partner.
