🧪🌍 #SyntheticDrugs demand science-based, cross-sectoral action. By fostering partnerships that connect forensic expertise, law enforcement, and justice institutions—we are building resilient, evidence-based criminal justice systems. 🙏 to all involved, in particular @CanadaFP.
16 countries. One mission. Countless skills gained. 🌎🕵️♂️ We’ve wrapped up the first phase of project with @UNODC_SDS in Latin America and the Carribean! From forged docs to latent prints, officers are now better equipped to tackle synthetic drug threats. Thanks to @CanadaFP
