About

The Follow-The-Money Working Group is part of a broader Countering Environmental Corruption Practitioners Forum created in late 2022 by a consortium of leading conservation and anti-corruption organisations: WWF, TRAFFIC, Transparency International and the Basel Institute on Governance. The Follow-The-Money Working Group is coordinated by the Basel Institute.

Membership is free and open to any professional working (or aspiring) to tackle the illicit finances of environmental criminals.

The monthly meeting is a chance for members to share best practices, challenges and updates on using follow-the-money techniques to detect, investigate and prosecute environmental criminals and their corrupt facilitators. Public meetings take place on a bi-monthly basis.

The meetings take place in English with simultaneous interpretation in Spanish and French.
