Stocktaking and prospects for containing the expansion

The study "The jihadist threat in northern Ghana and Togo: Stocktaking and prospects for containing the expansion" was conducted by the regional programme Political Dialogue in West Africa (PDWA) of the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in cooperation with PROMEDIATION. The study focuses on recent developments in the jihadist terrorist threat in the north of Ghana and Togo and is a continuation of the study " North of the countries of the Gulf of Guinea - The new frontier for jihadist groups" published in 2021.

The new study provides important insights into the situation of Ghana and Togo on the security chessboard in the region between the Sahel and the Gulf of Guinea. Both countries have increasingly become the focus of jihadist groups in recent years, especially due to the deteriorating security situation in Burkina Faso and Mali. The study looks at the varying degrees of jihadist terrorist threat in the West African countries on the Gulf of Guinea and sheds light on intergovernmental approaches in order to arm themselves against the growing danger of jihadist terror.

This publication is the result of several field studies conducted by Promediation's local teams and consultants as part of their programmes in the Sahel and the Gulf of Guinea.
