LET'S TALK ABOUT DNA
"Education is essential in building long-term approaches to countering crime and violence."
"When you have a #DNAbacklog,
it’s not just justice
that’s being delayed,
but countless lives
are put on hold."
"Men need to play a greater role in preventing
Gender Based Violence"
"I believe in
advancing justice though DNA technology"
AWARENESS and EDUCATION
By working together, we can achieve the necessary goals we need to combat GBV, human trafficking and violent crime in Africa. We do this by:
-
Hosting workshops and symposiums to inform and connect key opinion leaders and change advocates throughout Africa
-
Offering webinars and podcasts for you to learn more about the role and potential of DNA in the criminal justice system
-
Sharing news of changes in DNA legislation and local lobbying efforts via our social media channels
-
Engaging with partners world-wide to align common strategic goals for the betterment of society
RESOURCE TOOLS
Through our experienced regional leaders, we offer policymakers,
criminal justice officials, crime labs and law enforcement the data and policy information needed to make educated decisions around DNA database strategy.
Our resources include access to expertise in:
-
DNA policy and legislation
-
DNA databases
-
Scientific advances in DNA technologies
REGIONS IN AFRICA WHERE WE CONNECT
Many current DNA databases worldwide have been directly aided or established due to the collective efforts of our regional leaders and global partners.
As more countries in Africa realise the value of forensic DNA profiling, we offer assistance to policy makers to achieve their legislative objectives, as well as guide the implementation process.
