The mid-term evaluation of the Global Programme against Money Laundering, Proceeds of Crime and the Financing of Terrorism (GPML) examined the effectiveness, efficiency, and relevance of the GPML’s activities. It reviewed and identified ways to enhance the programme’s impact and sustainability in compliance with international AML/CFT standards. The scope included a desk review of documents, interviews with beneficiaries, partners, and UNODC staff, visits to twelve countries, and a survey of beneficiaries. The evaluation highlighted the significant role of the mentorship programme and made eleven key recommendations, including the need for increased and more secure funding, strategic long-term planning, and improved promotion of GPML’s products and services.
