This Diagnosis, promoted by the Ibero-American Association of Public Prosecutors (AIAMP) and the European Union’s COPOLAD III Program, is the starting point for the development of a series of guidelines, criteria, or action guides to support and advise prosecutors in Ibero-America in their joint and comprehensive approach to illicit drug trafficking and related and associated environmental crimes.
As a whole, the technical assistance project responds to the need, identified by prosecutors themselves, to provide an adequate response, from the point of view of criminal proceedings and the adequate protection and respect of fundamental rights and guarantees, to the environmental impact associated with crimes involving illicit drugs.
In doing so, they are collaborating precisely in giving substance to the obligations of preservation and care for the environment imposed on States by the International Court of Justice, and ultimately contributing to the maintenance of an ecological system that can be enjoyed by present and future generations and in which human life and that of all components of the environment can develop to the fullest environment.
