In 2022, UNODC is creating a new regional platform for selected francophone countries of West and Sahel Africa.
The Regional Platform comprises six countries, namely: Burkina Faso, Chad, Cote d’Ivoire, Mauritania, Niger and Senegal.
The regional platform will be launched through a large-scale regional conference that will be held from 21 to 25 November 2022 in Senegal.
At the end of the conference, governmental experts, high-level officials, representatives of civil society and private sector as well as development partners, will agree on a set of recommendations to fast-track the implementation of the United Nations Convention against Corruption in the four thematic areas identified as regional priorities.
The priority areas identified by the countries of the platform are: financial investigations, whistle-blower protection, integrity systems and asset recovery.
An action plan will be decided by the countries during the regional conference. More information on the priorities areas will become available based on the decisions made.
Following the creation of the platform, the mapping/baselining will be conducted the first half of 2023.
