The African Union Peace and Security Council’s debate on tactics to fight transnational organized crime (TOC) throughout Africa is examined in this briefing. It draws attention to the increasing connections between organized crime, terrorism, corruption, illicit financial flows, and cybercrime, underscoring the necessity of an all-encompassing, continental response that integrates law enforcement with improved governance, border control, regional cooperation, financial investigations, and community resilience. The research also emphasizes how crucial it is to use AU institutions and adjust to new risks like cybercrime and AI-enabled criminal activity.
