Government Agencies and Inter-Governmental Organizations

We collaborate with law enforcement agencies both in the U.S. and abroad, providing confidential information and various intelligence products to support their investigations into environmental and wildlife crime, as well as other related serious crimes, both domestically and internationally.

In the U.S., we routinely collaborate and share information with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, the Department of the Interior, NOAA, and other government agencies. These collaborations have led to important arrests in the U.S.

Outside the United States, we have been collaborating and sharing information with trusted public prosecutors and authorities in Mexico, Bolivia, Peru, The Netherlands, Thailand, Vietnam, Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa, among others. Most of these collaborations led to new investigations and significant arrests

We also share information with inter-governmental organizations such as UNODC and CITES.

 

Academic Institutions

Collaborating with leading academic institutions in the US and around the world is very important for Earth League International. This partnership empowers us to access cutting-edge research, leverage expert insights, and foster innovation, enabling more effective strategies and solutions in our ongoing fight against environmental crime and the preservation of our planet’s precious resources.

We collaborate with the Florida International University (FIU) in Miami, the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York, and the TraCCC research center within the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University in D.C., among others.
