“The AUC shall encourage sub-regional
mutualized efforts in the construction and
equipment of standardized Offshore Patrol
Vessels (OPV) and other specific naval
vessels”
SADC Maritime Security Strategy
“SADC must take the lead in controlling its
own maritime domain. The cornerstone of
the Maritime Security Strategy is anchored
by capacity building of the navies of SADC.
The output must be the acquisition of
inshore and offshore patrol vessels”
Capacity and Capacity Building

Africa has witnessed the
resurgence of the age old global
problems of piracy, human
trafficking and dumping of toxic
waste on its coastal waters. This is
further to illegal fishing which has
been going on for decades
unnoticed, for the most part, by
poorly equipped African states. In
particular, the rapid escalation of
piracy activity off the coast of
Somalia and the Gulf of Guinea
has alarmed African states and,
more so, the international
community.

This presentation is dedicated to
those men and women who brave the
mighty sea in the legal exploration
and exploitation of the oceans, to the
benefit of mankind, and those who
have pledged to uphold the notion of
the freedom of the seas and innocent
passage.
