Geneva, March 7 (RHC-CMC) – The international police organization (INTERPOL) has signed an agreement with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) to combat human trafficking and migrant smuggling in the Caribbean and other places.

The agreement was penned by INTERPOL Secretary General Ronald K. Noble and IOM Director General William Lacy Swing. Both officials said it formalizes 'the already strong working relationship between the two organizations.'

IOM director General William Lacy Swing said: “IOM and INTERPOL have a long history of collaboration in the field of border and migration management.”

According to INTERPOL, key elements include information exchange, in particular relating to travel fraud, border management technology and operations, capacity building and training for police and migration officials, and implementing joint projects to address human trafficking and migrant smuggling.

The agreement will reportedly contribute to ongoing global efforts to identify the individuals and organized crime networks behind human trafficking and migrant smuggling.
