in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary of State and USAID may design programs in focus countries to build wildlife law enforcement and customs capacity. They may also fund transnational programs, including Wildlife Enforcement Networks, to fight the international illegal wildlife trade. Both efforts follow each country's strategic plan.

(a) Investigative capacity building: The Secretary of State and the USAID Administrator, working with other relevant U.S. agencies and with communities, regions, and governments in focus countries, may design and run programs there. These programs carry out the strategic plan required under section 7631(a)(2), with clear, measurable goals, to build the skills of wildlife law enforcement, customs, and border security officers in focus countries. (b) Transnational programs: The Secretary of State and the USAID Administrator, working with other relevant U.S. agencies, outside partners, international bodies, and communities, regions, and governments in focus countries, may design and run programs — including support for Wildlife Enforcement Networks — in focus countries. These also carry out the strategic plan required under section 7631(a)(2), aiming to better understand and fight the international illegal wildlife trade.
