A UNODC campaign to prevent and combat migrant smuggling, was adopted today by the 11 Member States of the Regional Conference on Migration (RCM) as an initiative to raise awareness about the crime. The event, promoted by UNODC, the Technical Secretariat of the RCM and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Mexico, took place in the Mexican Cultural Institute of Washington D.C.
RCM is a high level inter government forum of 11 countries in North and Central America devoted to sharing information and promoting a dialogue on migration. Today’s event marked the starting point for the dissemination of #DeadlyBusiness at the national level in all RCM Member States delivering a message of prevention of migrant smuggling.
