🇪🇨 Ecuador da un paso significativo para proteger a niñas, niños y adolescentes frente al reclutamiento por estructuras criminales.
PADF reconoce la aprobación, por parte de la Asamblea Nacional, del Proyecto de Ley Orgánica Reformatoria para la Prevención y Erradicación del Reclutamiento o Utilización de Niñas, Niños y Adolescentes.
Este avance fortalece el marco para prevenir y detectar tempranamente el reclutamiento, proteger a quienes se encuentran en situación de riesgo y articular una respuesta entre instituciones, gobiernos locales, comunidades y familias.
Durante los últimos años, PADF ha trabajado junto a socios en Ecuador para generar evidencia sobre esta problemática, fortalecer capacidades y promover una mayor coordinación para prevenir el reclutamiento de niñas, niños y adolescentes.
La aprobación del proyecto representa un paso importante. El desafío ahora es continuar transformando los avances normativos en acciones concretas de prevención y protección en los territorios.
Porque la niñez no se recluta. Se protege.

Across Latin America and the Caribbean, PADF works alongside municipalities to develop practical, long-term responses that meet people where they are and leave stronger systems behind.
Because lasting solutions start locally. 🌎🤝

As the implementing partner of the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), PADF conducted the training “Financial Investigations and Prosecution of Civil Asset Forfeiture Cases” on September 17-18 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
The training brought together judges, prosecutors, and law enforcement to strengthen their knowledge of financial investigations, asset tracing, and the judicial handling of asset forfeiture cases. Through practical discussions and case-based learning, participants enhanced their capacity to identify, investigate, and recover assets linked to organized crime and corruption.
This activity was conducted under PADF’s Organized Crime and Corruption Program and contributes to ongoing efforts to strengthen institutional capacity and improve the effectiveness of asset forfeiture proceedings in the Dominican Republic.

Concordia brings together voices from around the world to explore ideas, challenge assumptions, and discuss possible solutions to the issues shaping our collective future.

For PADF, it is always an enriching opportunity to listen, learn, reconnect with partners, and take in perspectives from across sectors and regions.

Good conversations. New ideas. Shared challenges. And a reminder of how much progress depends on working together.
