The organisation offers operational support but also creates diplomatic pressure on those governments that are unwilling to act on the evidence, holding a public hearing in front of recognised experts as a last resort.

[3] The WJC works with law enforcement, policymakers, intergovernmental organisations and non-governmental entities to advance the cause of wildlife justice and over the longer-term help create sustainable solutions.

All WJC’s research data, some from investigations that took more than two years to complete, was delivered to governments or law enforcement authorities in India, Malaysia, Lao PDR, Viet Nam, Mozambique, China and Bangladesh.

In that year, the WJC also produced two substantial Case Files, for the governments of Viet Nam, Lao PDR and China, identifying the trafficking of over USD 30 million in ivory, rhino horn and tiger body parts such as skin, claws, teeth canines, whiskers and bones.

The WJC works in partnership and develops agreements with stakeholders from different fields with the aim of achieving the biggest impact against wildlife trafficking and the criminal networks that perpetuate it.
