Our WJC community is made up of teams of investigators, analysts, diplomats, lawyers, communicators and administrators, committed to our core objective of disrupting and helping dismantle transnational, organised wildlife crime.

We are a young organisation – only formed in 2015 – but we have decades of experience to bring to our work.

At the core of who we are and what we do is our investigations and intelligence teams. The nature of their work is behind the scenes and confidential, but their expertise in conducting complex investigations across national borders and the vital intelligence they gather, enables us to bring the wildlife criminals out of the shadows. Read more about their work here.

We also have an incredible group of independent experts in the Independent Review Panel committed to supporting the organisation by reviewing our Case Files. The group includes: Edgardo Buscaglia, Lai Siu Chiu, Fatoumata Dembélé, Diego García-Sayán, Misha Glenny, Nik Gowing, Philippe Kirsch, Isaac Lenaola, Natalie Nougayrède, Kamundoni Nyasulu, Anton du Plessis, Kimberly Prost, Olivier C. Ruppel, Sylvia Steiner, David Tolbert, José Ugaz and Annecoos Wiersema.

Our small team represents twenty different countries and cultures and we are very proud of our diversity.
