Background
In 2020, the UN Intergovernmental Expert Group on Cybercrime (IEG) is to discuss the chapters on international cooperation and prevention of the Comprehensive Draft Study on Cybercrime, as contained in the work plan of the Expert Group for 2018-2021. In December 2019, the UN General Assembly resolution A/RES/74/247 initiated a new, parallel process. The resolution mandates the establishment of an open-ended ad hoc intergovernmental committee of experts, representative of all regions, to elaborate a comprehensive international convention on ‘countering the use of information and communications technologies for criminal purposes’. The process is to begin with a three-day organisational session in August 2020.
Objectives
The webinar aims to facilitate the new process through the sharing of experience between criminal justice practitioners, who are to be the beneficiaries of a future UN treaty on cybercrime, and foreign policy experts, who will be involved in the negotiation of this treaty. The webinar will focus on:
- The concept of cybercrime as a matter of criminal justice
- The question of cybercrime legislation and reforms already undertaken by governments worldwide
- The challenge of international cooperation in practice
- The experience of capacity building
Participants
This series of webinars is aimed primarily at foreign affairs officials working on cybercrime and United Nations matters in New York (diplomatic missions to UN HQ), Vienna (diplomatic missions to UNODC) and capitals (Ministries of Foreign Affairs) as well as cybercrime and criminal justice experts from competent public authorities (for example from Ministries of Interior, Justice or Communications, and public prosecution or Attorney General’s office).
