Criminal Justice Forum for Asia and the Pacific

The Criminal Justice Forum for Asia and the Pacific(Crim-AP)is a forum organized by the Ministry of Justice of Japan (MOJ) and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC).

The “Kyoto Declaration” confirmed the importance of enhancing international cooperation and establishing a regional network among law enforcement agencies. In the Asia-Pacific region including Japan, there is room for improvement of international cooperation due to insufficient understanding of legal frameworks.

Therefore, the MOJ decided to hold a regular conference for further enhancement of the international cooperation by sharing information about each country’s legal framework and practices, establishing a network among regional practitioners.
