The Basel Institute’s International Centre for Asset Recovery (ICAR), in collaboration with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), conducted a National Workshop on the management of seized/frozen and confiscated criminal assets in Accra, Ghana, from 24 to 26 February 2016.

The workshop programme was designed to explore relevant guidelines and national and international best practices for the management of seized/frozen and confiscated assets to assist authorities in Ghana with the drafting of a national manual pertaining to the topic. The three-day seminar drew together some 24 participants from various law enforcement agencies.
