The Economic and Organised Office (EOCO) and the Ghana Internet Safety Foundation (GISF) in Accra have formalised their collaboration through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), aimed at bolstering internet safety and combatting online threats in Ghana.<\/p>\n
The MoU establishes a framework for joint online safety awareness campaigns targeting audiences in Ghana, leveraging the strengths and expertise of both institutions to enhance online safety and mitigate cybercrime.<\/p>\n
The signing ceremony was attended by the Executive Director of EOCO, COP Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah, her deputies, and heads of units, demonstrating the commitment of both organisations to this collaborative effort.<\/p>\n
COP Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah, in her remarks, highlighted the significance of the partnership in alignment with EOCO\u2019s strategic priorities, emphasising the importance of partnerships with law enforcement agencies and engagement with the media and the general public.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is my great pleasure to welcome you all warmly to the Economic and Organised Office to be part of the signing ceremony of an MoU between EOCO and Ghana Internet Safety Foundation.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026It is worth noting that EOCO\u2019s Strategic Plan in Strategic Priority 3 mandates the Office to \u2018Partner Law Enforcement Agencies and other relevant institutions\u2019 and its sub section Strategic Pillar 4 which highlights EOCO\u2019s engagement with the media and general public.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe purpose of the MoU is to establish a framework for collaboration between GISF and EOCO in conducting joint online safety awareness campaigns aimed at target audiences in Ghana,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n
She added that the collaboration also sought to leverage the strengths and expertise of both institutions to enhance online safety and reduce cybercrime in Ghana.<\/p>\n
\u201cI must emphasise that this partnership also seeks to create a safer digital space for all internet users in Ghana.<\/p>\n
\u201cPer the scope of collaboration stated in the MoU, both institutions will work towards; Education and Awareness Capacity building.\u201d<\/p>\n
President and Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of GISF, Emmanuel Adinkrah, who joined via zoom, commended EOCO for its fight against cyber crime.<\/p>\n
He praised EOCO\u2019s efforts in fighting cybercrime and expressed confidence that the MoU would mark the beginning of effective internet safety measures and the combatting of online threats.<\/p>\n
Gabriel Ofori Appiah, Director of Operation and Outreach at GISF, touched on the foundation\u2019s grassroots initiatives and its flagship programmes, including Child Online Protection (COP) Initiatives and the National Digital Parenting Conference, emphasising GISF\u2019s role as a voice for online security and child protection.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Ghana Internet Safety Foundation (GISF) was founded in 2014 as a grassroots oriented non-profit organisation duly registered by the Government of Ghana,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
GISF, he stressed, serves as a public media voice on online security and child sexual abuse by disseminating relevant information and contents on social media.<\/p>\n
