FOTRAC

Seminar on cross-border crime

As part of the on-going cross border trade fair (FOTRAC), a one-day seminar themed "Cross-border and trans-national crime" held at the Meyo-Kye sub-divisional office in Gabon on Wednesday August 25, 2021.

The meeting was attended, inter alia, by a strong Cameroonian delegation led by the Sub-Divisional Officer for Kye-Ossi. As a partner institution, the Cameroon National Shippers’ Council was part of the Cameroonian delegation.

The topic of the meeting is in line with the theme of the 12^th edition of FOTRAC namely "Boosting intra-regional trade for peace and socio-economic and cultural development of Africa despite COVID-19".

Seminar attendees were educated on the different types of crimes which moreover undermine the principle of the free movement of goods and people in cross-border areas.

The seminar was organised by the Central African Network of Active Women led by Mme. Danielle Nlate in partnership with a Gabonese civil society organisation and GIZ-Cameroon.
