Pacific leaders, law enforcement officials and academics will be brought together to address transnational crime in the Pacific region at the inaugural Pacific Regional Law Enforcement Conference (PRLEC) held in Fiji from August 1.

​

Drug trafficking and other transnational criminal activity in the Pacific Islands has evolved significantly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with a rise in local actor’s participation in transnational criminal networks.

​

PRLEC is a ground-breaking opportunity to establish a strong network of law enforcement practitioners across sectors to disrupt the currently growing criminal syndicates in the Pacific

 

We hope it also promotes constructive regional dialogue on the issues of transnational and organized crime in the Pacific.
