Today, Secretary General Marija Pejčinović Burić shared her report on the activities in 2023 of the Cybercrime Programme Office (C-PROC) of the Council of Europe with the Committee of Ministers. This report confirms once again the global scope and impact of capacity building by C-PROC:
"In 2023, the Office, through six projects (with a cumulative budget of over EUR 49 million and some 40 staff), supported 305 activities in all regions of the world (including 102 training events for judges, prosecutors and investigators) culminating in the Octopus Conference in Bucharest, Romania, from 13 to 15 December."
The publication of this report coincides with the 10th anniversary of C-PROC since it became operational in April 2014:
“In the ten years since its creation, C-PROC – through over 2,100 activities benefitting more than 130 countries – has made a significant contribution to the strengthening of legislation and criminal justice capacities on cybercrime and e-evidence worldwide in line with the Convention on Cybercrime and human rights and rule of law requirements. Between 2013 and 2023, the number of states with substantive criminal law in line with this Convention increased from 70 to 131. Capacity building by C-PROC has been a major factor for the growing reach and membership of this Convention (increase from 41 parties in 2013 to 69 by the end of 2023).”
