As part of a Green Customs approach, Customs endeavors to confirm compliance of Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) on international trade operations, in addition to combating illegal trade of other goods that negatively impact the environment. To identify these goods and assess if they comply with regulations that Customs is responsible for enforcing, it requires support of specialized technological solutions developed by the academia, international organizations, NGOs, and other suppliers. In this context, the project will carry out a research and a workshop at SOM3 2024, bringing together officials of the Customs of the region and the aforementioned actors, in order to promote the implementation and application of technological solutions for the control of illegal trade goods related to the Basel Convention, Montreal Protocol, Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), as well as wood, wildlife and hydrobiological products. |
