WEBINAR: INTERPOL Washington's Missing Person Unit

August 20, 2024 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM (EDT)

Description

Please join us and register today! Law Enforcement Only!


INTERPOL Washington's Missing Person Unit (MPU) will be hosting a webinar on Tuesday, August 20 at 1 PM EST to train you on critical INTERPOL resources available to you and your agency at no cost! 


MPU was launched in February 2024 to bring the INTERPOL global network and its tools to your agency in the fight for justice and closure for families, including Yellow Notices (missing persons), Black Notices (unidentified bodies), DNA Requests, and the INTERPOL I-Familia Database.


Dr. Francois Laurent, DNA Database Manager with the INTERPOL General Secretariat, will be the webinar's featured speaker and will focus on the I-Familia Database, a global database for identifying missing persons based upon international kinship matching. 


Virtual attendance is open to all interested individuals within your agency.
