  • Crime Convergence:  Natural Resource Exploitation and Transnational Organized Crime

    Illegal exploitation of natural resources and wildlife including wildlife trafficking, and crimes associated with logging, mining, fishing, land conversion, and others are all crimes that threaten ecosystems, contribute to climate change, worsen food and economic security, and undermine global efforts to promote sustainability and conservation. Together, the illegal trade or trafficking in natural resources, is the third-largest criminal sector worldwide, generating between USD 110 to 280 billion annually. Despite their staggering scale and impact, these crimes are often mischaracterized as primarily conservation issues, when in reality, they are deeply connected to the world of transnational organized criminal networks.
