The Ghana Boundary Commission and the National Boundary Commission of Côte d’Ivoire jointly organised a 2-day community sensitisation programme at New Town, in the Western Region of Ghana and Noé, Côte d’Ivoire on 23 and 24 November 2023 respectively. The exercise, sponsored by the German Government using GIZ as the implementing agency, forms part of the maiden joint land boundary reaffirmation to be undertaken along the Ghana/Cote d’Ivoire land boundary covering an approximate distance of 150km for the first phase. 

The sensitisation was aimed at educating the border communities on the joint reaffirmation exercise and also highlighting the importance of international boundaries to the population.
