Title : 81319145-Technical and methodological advice in combating illicit financial flows in Senegal
Description : Description of the project: The project is part of the EZ programme "Good governance for more investment and employment". The module aims to strengthen the rule of law, transparency and social cohesion. It is assigned to the core theme "Peace and social cohesion", field of action "Good governance". The project contributes to the development cooperation programme in two ways: firstly, it aims to strengthen the independence of the judiciary and contribute to more uniform case law; secondly, measures to combat IFF and corruption are planned as part of the project. IFF are funds that are illegal due to their origin (e.g. from corruption), their use (e.g. for terrorist financing) or the nature of their transfer (e.g. money laundering). The contractor contributes to the achievement of the module objective "the judiciary and other state and non-state actors fulfil their role, in particular in strengthening access to justice for the Senegalese population and in combating illicit financial flows" and, in particular, to the achievement of output 3 (Number of reform steps implemented by relevant governmental and non-governmental actors in the area of combating illicit financial flows to strengthen the prevention, financial investigation, and asset recovery of illicit financial flows, including those resulting from corruption).
