class="ecl"><p>Organised crime is a threat to European citizens, businesses, state institutions as well as the economy as a whole. Criminals easily operate across borders, which creates a need for consistent European–level action. The EU continuously adapts its response in relation to the growing complexity of the situation, including the development of specialised EU <a href="/agencies_en">agencies</a>, such as Europol, Eurojust and CEPOL.</p><p>In April 2021 the European Commission adopted the <a href="https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/AUTO/?uri=CELEX%3A52021DC0170" class="ecl-link">EU Strategy to tackle organised crime</a> for the period 2021-2025. The Strategy sets out priority work strands and actions to tackle the organisation and business model of criminal networks. The strategy is aimed at boosting law enforcement and judicial cooperation, disrupting organised crime structures and tackling high priority crimes, eliminating the profits generated by organised crime and making law enforcement and the judiciary fit for the digital age.</p></div></div></div><div class="ecl-featured-item__item"><div class="ecl-media-container

The ratification of the United Nations' Convention against Corruption has been a further step towards a more coherent EU anti-corruption policy.

In view of the threatening situation, the Commission has recently stepped up the fight against drug trafficking and the criminal networks behind it, with the adoption of a new EU Roadmap to fight drug trafficking and organised crime. The Roadmap complements the EU Strategy on Organised Crime and the Drugs Strategy and Action Plan with targeted concrete actions to be implemented in 2024 and 2025.

It is a lucrative business for organised crime, and in some cases for conflict parties and terrorists. Beyond actual trafficking, criminals can misuse cultural goods for money laundering, sanctions evasion, tax evasion or terrorism financing. Tackling this crime area requires a tailor-made response at EU level. On 13 December 2022, the European Commission presented EU action plan against trafficking in cultural goods.</p> <p><strong>Environmental crime</strong> deserves particular attention due to its harmful effects on biodiversity and on the environment, health and social cohesion within the EU and in third countries. The Commission is reviewing the <a href="https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/AUTO?uri=CELEX%3A52021PC0709" class="ecl-link">EU Waste Shipments Regulation</a> and the <a href="https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/AUTO/?uri=COM%3A2022%3A581%3AFIN" class="ecl-link">Action Plan against Wildlife Trafficking</a> as well as the <a href="https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/AUTO/?uri=CELEX%3A52021PC0851" class="ecl-link">Environmental Crime Directive</a>.</p> <h2>How can the EU contribute to the fight against organised crime?</h2> <p>Operational activities, such as pursuing and prosecuting criminals, remain the responsibility of EU countries. The Commission’s objective is to assist EU countries in fighting organised crime more effectively. The EU's action extends from <a href="/policies/internal-security/organised-crime-and-human-trafficking/crime-prevention_en">crime prevention</a> to <a href="/policies/law-enforcement-cooperation_en">law enforcement</a> and is based on various tools, such as:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=LEGISSUM:jl0011" class="ecl-link">legislative measures harmonising rules concerning offences in relation to a criminal organisation</a></li> <li>gathering of reliable crime statistics</li> <li><a href="/funding_en">funding of European projects</a> or specialist networks</li> </ul> <p>Modern organised crime requires a multi-disciplinary approach to effectively prevent and counter it. Therefore, the EU has developed the so-called "Administrative approach", which can best be described as a combination of tools at administrative level to prevent organised crime from infiltrating the public sector, the economy or key parts of the public administration. Preventing such infiltration is equally important as fighting organised crime with the tools of the criminal justice system. Some EU States are fairly advanced in implementing this new approach, while others only recently discovered it. In order to further develop and implement the approach EU-wide, the Commission facilitated the establishment of a network of informal contact points for exchanging best practices. Europol has offered its infrastructure to exchange administrative information between EU States at a more operational level. </p></div> </div> <div class="ecl-u-mb-2xl"> <a id="paragraph_326"></a>
