Project Profile
The Technical Assistance Partnership—Expert Deployment Mechanism (TAP-EDM) and Canadian expert in law enforcement, Jordan Whitesell, is collaborating with Argentina’s Ministry of Security Cybercrime Investigations Directorate to strengthen the country’s capacity to investigate cybercrime, particularly in areas where women and girls are most vulnerable. The initiative aims to generate better inclusion of a gender perspective in the work of law enforcement officials in cybercrime as part of the Strengthening Cybersecurity and Cybercrime Investigation (ForCIC) program.
Jordan will work collaboratively with the Cybercrime Investigations Directorate to review essential country documentation on online child sexual exploitation to identify challenges, gaps, and opportunities to strengthen existing practices, procedures, tools, and coordination mechanisms within the Directorate for the detection, investigation, and prosecution of these crimes.
The work includes comprehensive training on strategies and tools to address these gaps focused on online child sexual exploitation cases and it will target Federal Police and Security Forces’ officers.
