Summary, etc International concern at the growing incidence of organised crime, corruption and terrorism and the debilitating effects these problems have on peace, security and development signals a need for concerted action. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) study on Crime and development in Africa (2005a) documents the emergence of organised crime on the continent and its links to conflict. It notes that the growth in international commerce and transport has made Africa, with its weak law enforcement capacity, an ideal conduit through which to extract and trans-ship a range of illicit commodities. This paper notes that drugs, firearms and human beings are being trafficked, and gemstones and other minerals, petroleum, timber and ivory are being illegally extracted from the continent.
