BLO Trainings Viet Nam (ROSEAP)
Growing interest in UNODC eLearning Growing interest can be observed in the UNODC eLearning trainings in Southeast Asia on the side of Viet Nam and Myanmar BLO officers in a co-operative effort to address border trafficking crimes. UNODC and SODC (Standing Office on Drugs and Crime) of Viet Nam held a training programme on transnational organized crimes using UNODC's Global eLearning Programme for law enforcement officers of six BLOs in Viet Nam. The training was implemented as part of a component of national field trainings organized by UNODC to increase awareness and the capacity of border officials to collect, integrate, analyze and share information on cross-border crimes, with a focus on detecting and interdicting transnational crimes.
On 22 July, frontline multi-agency law enforcement officers from six Border Liaison Offices (BLO) gathered for a weeklong training on anti-smuggling techniques to c o u n t er tr an s n a t i on a l o r g an iz e d environmental crimes in the city of Long Xuyen, Viet Nam. An international and national team of experts delivered the practical training to improve the capacity of the thirty participating officers to detect, interdict and communicate cross-border smuggling crimes as part of UNODC's Border Management Programme for Southeast Asia and the Global Programme for Combating Wildlife and Forest Crime.
