The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is offering this grant to fund research and evaluation applications focusing on critical transnational crime issues. This includes phenomena like trafficking in persons, transnational organized crime, and radicalization to violent extremism, which leverage geopolitical changes and technology to transcend borders. This grant’s purpose is to provide State, local, and tribal criminal justice agencies with crucial information and evidence-based practices needed to secure their communities. Proposals should develop and analyze data with clear implications for criminal justice, focusing on transnational offenders, the dynamics between organized crime and extremist groups, measuring transnational crime and trafficking, and evaluating demand reduction efforts for these illicit activities.

| Description: | NIJ seeks research and evaluation applications on the phenomenon of transnational crime issues. Transnational crime issues leverage geopolitical changes, globalization, and the information technology revolution to transcend sovereign borders and impact numerous countries simultaneously. This research will supplement work already underway at NIJ on three separate topics—trafficking in persons, transnational organized crime, and radicalization to violent extremism. The goal of this solicitation is to provide the information and evidence-based practices that State, local, and tribal criminal justice agencies need to secure their communities against transnational crimes. Proposals should develop and analyze information and data that have clear implications for criminal justice in the following focus areas: (1) transnational offenders, (2) similarities and differences between organized crime and violent extremist groups, (3) measurement of transnational organized crime and trafficking in persons, and (4) evaluations of efforts to reduce demand for transnational organized crime and/or trafficking in persons. |
