Financial Dimensions of War Crimes Investigations

The course is designed to provide specialist knowledge and skills to allow participants to identify, collect and utilise financial evidence as part of a broader investigation into war crimes or human rights abuses. It will be a mixture of presentations and immersive exercises.

The course includes:

  • An introduction to the international legal framework
  • The international financial investigation landscape: international regulation & frameworks; law enforcement structures; international cooperation mechanisms
  • Financial investigation – principles & practice: preparation & planning
  • Using open source intelligence: researching & profiling persons of interest; company and business searching
  • Money laundering: international money movements; correspondent banking; offshore structures
  • Sensitive witnesses/information sources: risk management

The course will involve an immersive exercise based on a realistic scenario designed to develop and test the learning acquired in the course.

The course was definitely an extraordinary experience.

Student of the Analysis skills Course

We had a colleague on mission from Geneva a while back, and when they found out I had completed the IICI investigators course they mentioned that it was the ‘gold standard’ of training and that more human rights officers needed to do it. Could not agree more.

You, both the participants and our tutors, are uniquely talented and experienced individuals from whom I learned a lot during my one week with you. Am looking forwards to another opportunity to work with you in an effort to enhance respect and accountability for human rights and end impunity on SGBV crimes.
