This project was funded by the Danish government and administered by UNODC. CEMLAWS Africa implemented the project in both Nigeria and Ghana. The aim of the project was to strengthen the development of sustainable and cohesive institutional arrangements for maritime security by enhancing the strategic basis for decision-making and the practical interaction between relevant actors, including the national maritime authorities, navies, maritime police, and other law enforcement and justice actors in both Ghana and Nigeria.
The engagement built upon the existing mandates and the leadership of national authorities in the two countries.
