The United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) is one of the six principal organs of the UN, responsible for addressing global economic, social, and environmental challenges. It plays a pivotal role in coordinating international efforts to combat illicit trading and wildlife resource trafficking, which threaten biodiversity, disrupt ecosystems, and fuel organized crime. ECOSOC collaborates with governments, NGOs, and international organizations to formulate policies, promote sustainable development, and strengthen enforcement mechanisms. By fostering dialogue and cooperation, the committee aims to implement effective strategies to curb illegal trade while ensuring economic stability and ecological preservation.
