Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs; Anti-Domestic Violence and Trafficking in Women and Children; Training and Technical Assistance Program

概要

State Department's Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) began an anti-domestic violence and trafficking in women and children program in 1997 to provide training and technical assistance in consultation with counterparts in Russia and the New Independent States (NIS). The goal of the program is to increase professionalism and improve the technical capabilities of law enforcement institutions to develop prevention and early intervention strategies to combat domestic violence and trafficking in women and children while protecting the human rights of victims. This program includes the participation of non-Federal agencies (e.g., universities, state/local government agencies, private non- profit organizations, etc.) in the delivery of law enforcement training and technical assistance to Russia, and the NIS. This non-Federal component of the INL program has a timeframe of 1999-2001.
