As a result of increased maritime security challenges across Africa, global naval
players have assembled to collaboratively counter illicit maritime activity within
the region. To effectively utilize and enforce additional resources, it is essential
for Africa’s navies to enhance interoperability, joint tactics and exercises to 
successfully improve maritime security and stability.

Hosted during the Senegal Navy’s 45th birthday celebrations, [Africa Maritime Security Forum](https://africamaritimesecurity.com/)
will reveal Senegal’s impressive naval base and fleet capabilities to the international
community as well as their commitment to international navy cooperation
