What are good examples of systems, particularly judicial systems, which have made improvements
in CWT enforcement?
What factors are necessary for effective cooperation and processes among national, sub-national,
and local authorities, especially for Wildlife Enforcement Networks?

pitch.” What is this project about?
3. Problem addressed (max 175 words)

project do and how did you do it?
5. Results (max 175 words)
Please provide an explanation of the main results of your intervention, focusing on outcomes (e.g., a major

6. Lessons learned (max 300 words)
Contribute your input to the CWT Learning Agenda question(s) your case chose to answer in Section 1. Include
