Border management

Tajikistan faces a number of border-related issues, including drugs smuggling and human trafficking. The Programme Office trains Tajik, Kyrgyz and Afghan border officials detect and intercept illegal border movements and helps them uncover chemicals used for drug production that are smuggled to Tajikistan from China or Kyrgyzstan. In 2009, the Programme Office established a Border Management Staff College to train senior border officials from all participating States and Partners for Co-operation.
