UNODC-WCO Container Control Programme (CCP)

This programme was developed jointly by UNODC and the World Customs Organization (WCO) to assist Governments to create sustainable enforcement structures in selected sea ports in order to minimize the risk of shipping containers being exploited for illicit drug trafficking, transnational organized crime, and other forms of black market activity. Programme activities include: 1) visits to discuss and brief Governments and Government officials about the objectives and activities of the programme; 2) Technical Needs Assessment of selected seaports and/or dry ports; 3) arranging training workshops to introduce risk-based profiling of containers and improved information exchange at the national, regional and international levels on container crime; 4) establishment of the container profiling unit in the selected seaport/dry port; and 5) arranging of the Work Study Tour. This programme has already been implemented in Benin, Cape Verde, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Ghana, Pakistan, Panama, Senegal, Togo and Turkmenistan
