Sanctions and Organized Crime is a research initiative by GI-TOC that focuses on the use of targeted sanctions to combat organized crime. Targeted sanctions are part of an evolving international toolkit designed to address criminal activities. They aim to disrupt organizations by prohibiting certain actions, such as financial transactions and travel for identified individuals or entities.
This initiative seeks to understand how international actors work together to implement sanctions, evaluate their effectiveness, and address gaps in knowledge about their processes. By analyzing case studies, GI-TOC aims to inform policymakers and improve global strategies to effectively disrupt transnational organized crime networks, refining sanctions as a crucial tool in international efforts.
