DNA MAP PROJECT

#DNAMappingAfrica

Help us map forensic capacity across Africa.

 

We're on a mission to gather accurate information on the forensic DNA landscape in all 52 African countries — including which states have DNA legislation, the size of their DNA databases, and the number of operational forensic science laboratories.

 

Our goal is to build an up-to-date, continent-wide map that reflects the current forensic status quo. We’d love your input — please use the form below to share information from your country. Your contribution will help strengthen forensic collaboration and visibility across Africa.

The Power of Data

Forensic DNA databases generate investigative leads in criminal cases and play a vital role in identifying missing persons and the deceased.
