The GLACY+ project, the European Commission’s TAIEX instrument, OCWAR-C and the Cyber Security Authority of Ghana (CSA) joined forces to organise the last workshop in a series of three introductory trainings for criminal justice professionals beyond the capital, with the aim of enhancing the capacities of the criminal justice authorities of Ghana to apply legislation on cybercrime and electronic evidence.
21 law enforcement professionals from key institutions of Western and Accra regions (the National Intelligence Bureau, Ghana Police Service, Criminal Investigations Department, Economic and Organised Crime Office, the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC), and the Department of Public Prosecutions) benefited from the activity. The Regional Introductory Judicial Training on Cybercrime and Electronic Evidence underlined the substantive provisions at a domestic and international level, procedural powers (including the legislative improvements brought by the Second Additional Protocol), and international co-operation.
The training generated both an investment in capacity building at the local level, and the opportunity to gather essential information about the processes and challenges of Ghana’s criminal justice system, as well as its needs, outside the capital city.
