The
Intergovernmental Action Group against Money Laundering in West Africa (GIABA)
will be organizing a regional sensitization workshop for Civil Society Organizations
(CSOs) on AML/CFT in the Senegalese capital of Dakar on 6 and 7 August 2012.
A
statement from the sub-regional agency says the objectives of the workshop are
to sensitize civil society organizations on AML/CFT issues and related implications
in the West African sub-region; to get members of the civil society actively
committed to their role as champions against these twin scourges by spreading
the message at grassroots level; to establish links and a solid network of CSOs
engaged in the fight as a means of sharing experiences and knowledge within the
sub-region; and finally, to build the capacity of CSOs and empower them to take
ownership of the fight against ML/FT.
“The
fight against money laundering and the financing of terrorism is a collective
responsibility of all stakeholders geared towards the protection of the
economies and financial systems of member States,” the statement says. “GIABA
acknowledges the contribution of the civil society in mass mobilization and in
the decision-making process.”
One
of GIABA’s strategic objectives for the period spanning 2011-2014 is to promote
strategic partnership with the private sector, the civil society and other key
stakeholders in raising the awareness of the community as a means of empowering
the citizenry and enabling them to take corrective measures.
The
involvement of civil society organizations (CSOs) is therefore crucial in the
fight against ML/FT. This fight would help raise public awareness, enhance
effective and sustainable pressure in order to obtain the required change and
highlight the efforts already deployed by GIABA.
While
using the strategy of persuasion, it is imperative for CSOs to know the
specific contribution they can and should make in order to surmount the threat
of ML as well as the emergence of FT and enhance public understanding,
attitudes and references.
In
an environment where political leaders and decision-makers need to be sensitised
and involved in the fight against ML/FT, the civil society would serve as the
backbone for such advocacy and change.
The
workshop is targeting civil society organizations in West Africa which are
actively involved in the fight against corruption, collusion and bad
governance. It will be facilitated by the GIABA Secretariat and other resource
persons through presentations and interactive sessions.
It
is expected, at the end of the workshop, that collaboration with civil society
organizations would improve; awareness-raising on AML/CFT at grassroots level
would be enhanced; and the understanding and capacity building of stakeholders
in the AML/CFT battle would also be enhanced.
