Chemical Risk Identification and Mitigation Programme Training
Abstract
The Chemical Risk Identification and Mitigation Programme "CRIMP" develops the capacity of INTERPOL member countries to identify the risk posed by the availability of weaponizable chemicals and their precursors within specific geographic areas so as to prevent access and use by non-state actors. Building upon INTERPOL’s network within its 190 member countries, CRIMP brings together law enforcement agencies involved in CT activities / infrastructure protection and key stakeholders within national / regional chemical industry in order to identify chemicals of particular risk of diversion through a multi-agency chemical risk and threat assessment process, and subsequently facilitates targeted law-enforcement chemical countermeasures activities designed to detect, deter and disrupt non-state actor access to the highest risk chemicals. Following a comprehensive and multi-level threat assessment and needs gap analysis, the CRIMP training component provides participants in partner countries with the knowledge and tools to: Identify the main chemicals of security concern with respect to criminal and terrorist activity; Identify a prioritized list for implementation of a law enforcement-led chemical countermeasures program designed to mitigate the risk of illicit diversion of chemicals; Establish an effective law enforcement led chemical countermeasures program built around chemical industry outreach and the development of triggers and tripwires
