Operations

Our global operations help dismantle the criminal networks behind human trafficking and migrant smuggling.

Long-term impact

INTERPOL-coordinated operations are built to empower national police forces with the skills and international network required to take on human trafficking and migrant smuggling.

Actions in the field are preceded by training workshops to ensure that officers on the ground are trained in a range of skills, including interview techniques and the use of INTERPOL’s tools and databases.

Deployments effectively combine police action with input from a number of different actors such as investigators from specialized units, immigration and customs officers, prosecutors, international and non-governmental organizations, and local victim protection and assistance services.
