Partner Organizations

INPROL is spearheaded by the following organizations:


The United States Institute of Peace

United States Institute of Peace

The United States Institute of Peace (USIP) was founded in 1984 by Congress as an independent, national institute dedicated to the proposition that peace is possible, practical and essential for U.S. and global security. It pursues its vision of a world without violent conflict by working on the ground with local partners building peace from bottom up and top down. USIP provide people, organizations and governments at every level with the tools, knowledge and training to manage conflict before it can become violent, and to resolve conflict when it does.

Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs

Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs

The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), advises the President, Secretary of State, other bureaus in the Department of State, and other departments and agencies within the U.S. Government on the development of policies and programs to combat international narcotics and crime. INL programs support two of the Department's strategic goals: (1) to reduce the entry of illegal drugs into the United States; and (2) to minimize the impact of international crime on the United States and its citizens. Counternarcotics and anticrime programs also complement counterterrorism efforts, both directly and indirectly, by promoting modernization of and supporting operations by foreign criminal justice systems and law enforcement agencies charged with the counter-terrorism mission.
