Strengthening Judicial Effectiveness through Training Manuals and Technical Assistance for Costa Rica's Prosecutor Office: INL Costa Rica has issued several awards with prosecutorial training components and funded the development of a specialized, two-volume reference manual to guide money laundering and narcotics trafficking prosecutions. To further advance progress made during these projects and improve prosecutorial access to up-to-date reference materials, for adequate response to evolving criminal patterns and national trends, the U.S. Department of State has allocated $200,000 USD in Justice Sector Reform funds to execute a one-year project in benefit of Costa Rica's Prosecutor Office. This project seeks to improve reference and training resources available to Costa Rican prosecutors and develop and/or adapt prosecution strategies to reflect evolving criminal patterns, with the goal of better equipping prosecutors to successfully prosecute complex criminal cases.
