TNRC Knowledge Hub Training

Improving understanding of corruption, its drivers and facilitators, and the range of possible approaches (that include, but also extend beyond detection and enforcement) is the first step to targeting natural resource corruption. This course introduces basic learning from anti-corruption research and practice to help break down the concept of corruption and expand understanding of the ways that it can be addressed in conservation programming. Case studies are included from the wildlife, forests, and fisheries sectors, based on real-world experiences.

This self-paced two-hour eCourse has been developed for conservation and natural resource management professionals working globally in project design and implementation to combat the illegal wildlife trade. Little to no understanding of the financial sector is required.

ACAMS and the World Wildlife Fund, with the support of the USAID-funded Targeting Natural Resource Corruption project, developed a Spanish version of its free-of-charge training course "Ending Illegal Wildlife Trade: A Comprehensive Overview." This certificate includes Latin America-specific case studies and will train anti-financial crime (AFC) professionals on how to better identify, investigate, and penalize financial activity linked to this criminal threat.
