SUMMARY:Exploring illicit trades with a focus on crypto assets
DESCRIPTION:Criminals have swiftly adopted crypto assets due to their pseudo-anonymity\, non-traceability\, and cross-border exchange capabilities\, making them ideal tools for illicit activities. This workshop aims to explore emerging trends and innovative techniques for detecting\, investigating\, and preventing crypto illicit trades. Additionally\, it intends to assess the feasibility of regulatory approaches and their implications for stakeholders such as law enforcement agencies\, financial institutions\, and policymakers. \nThe in-person workshop will be held at the University of Lausanne\, Switzerland\, on September 25 and 26\, 2024. It invites presentations from industry experts and scholars\, as well as panel discussions and research paper presentations. \nDeadline for Abstract submission: 7th of June\, 2024 \nParticipants are encouraged to share their latest research findings on different facets of illicit trade and the involvement of crypto assets. We invite you to submit an abstract outlining a project related to illicit trade and crypto assets for consideration as a presentation at the workshop. \nPlease submit your abstract to Lucas Tosi Rodriguez (Deputy Leader of WG3) via lucas.tosirodriguez@unil.ch) no later than June 7\, 2024. \nTravel and accommodation expenses related to the workshop will be covered in accordance with the COST Action Travel Reimbursement Rules. \nWe look forward to your abstract submissions!

SUMMARY:Responses to Illicit Trade - Exploring Illicit Trades with a Focus on Crypto Assets
DESCRIPTION:On September 25th and 26th\, the Cost Action GLITSS (Working Group 3 – Responses to Illicit Trade) hosted an engaging workshop at ESC UNIL – École des sciences criminelles\, focused on Exploring Illicit Trades with a Focus on Crypto Assets. \nThe workshop shed light on how crypto assets are being exploited by criminals and organized groups\, particularly for money laundering. However\, existing scientific evidence shows that while crypto assets are not yet broadly used\, they are primarily exploited by offenders engaged in crypto-related crimes like ransomware\, fraud\, and the sale of drugs and other illegal items. The modus operandi for laundering tends to be quite basic. A key challenge we identified is the lack of available data\, which continues to limit in-depth research in this field. \nSpecial thanks to ESC UNIL – École des sciences criminelles\,  GLITSS\, and COST Action for the support.

SUMMARY:Human Trafficking and Counter-Trafficking: New Directions for Research and Policy
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to share that our Working Group 1 within the COST Action GLITSS held a workshop on “Human Trafficking and Counter-Trafficking: New Directions for Research and Policy” on 25-26 September at Complutense University of Madrid\, Faculty of Political Science and Sociology\, in collaboration with Iscte – University Institute of Lisbon. \nDuring the workshop\, we discussed practices often described in terms of human trafficking\, as well as counter-trafficking policies and interventions. It was acknowledged that these policies and their implementation often fail to address the root causes of violence as experienced by many people on the move and may even conflict with their expectations and needs. \nWe are committed to further exploring these complex issues and fostering collaboration between researchers and policymakers. Our group will continue to work on developing insights and strategies\, ensuring that future counter-trafficking policies are informed by research and local contexts.
