JUSTICE

The EU-AMAL Project supports Libyan institutions responsible for combating corruption, financial crimes, and illicit financial flows. The project focuses on strengthening the operational capacity of key institutions involved in financial intelligence, oversight, and justice sector training.

Building on the experience gained through previous EU-funded initiatives co-implemented by Fondazione SAFE in Libya, including the EULEAD programme, EU-AMAL focuses on supporting the Libyan Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), the Administrative Control Authority (ACA), and the Criminal Research and Training Centre (CRATC). The action supports Libya’s progressive alignment with international anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing standards, in particular the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and the practices of the Egmont Group of Financial Intelligence Units.

The project provides technical assistance to strengthen the FIU’s organisational structure and analytical capacities, support the roll-out of the goAML system, and improve the processing and analysis of Suspicious Transaction Reports. Alongside, the project supports the development of national and sectoral risk assessment roadmaps on money laundering and terrorism financing. In parallel, EU-AMAL contributes to strengthening the role of the CRATC and the ACA by supporting organisational development, digital governance systems, and the design and delivery of specialised training programmes for prosecutors, investigators, and law enforcement officials dealing with corruption and financial crime cases.

By reinforcing institutional accountability mechanisms and strengthening the operational effectiveness of rule of law actors, EU-AMAL supports long-term stability, improved governance, and enhanced public trust in Libyan institutions.
