Technical Adviser to the Managing Director
National Agency of Maritime Affairs (ANAM)<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

At 32, I returned to my studies, pursuing International Relations at a Parisian institution and earning a diploma. A year later, I obtained a Master\u2019s in Law, Economics, and Management, focusing on Development Project Management in Africa. This enabled me to assess UNDP actions for Senegalese rural women.\n<\/p>\n

\nIn 2010, I joined the National Agency of Maritime Affairs (ANAM-Senegal) as Head of Studies, Planning, and Strategies. In 2013, I attended the World Maritime University in Malm\u00f6, earning a Master of Science in Maritime Affairs, specializing in Maritime Safety and Environmental Administration. By 2016, I became Deputy Director of Maritime Safety and Marine Pollution Prevention at ANAM, overseeing vessel administration and ensuring maritime safety, pollution control, and a viable blue economy in Senegal.\n<\/p>\n

\nIn 2017, I was elected Vice-Chair of the INTERPOL Fisheries Crime Working Group (FCWG), tackling transnational environmental crimes in the fisheries sector. During this time, we launched the “Law Enforcement Femmes Network” to support female professionals in maritime enforcement agencies.\n<\/p>\n

\nI’ve contributed to various UNODC initiatives and consultancies, including the “Rotten Fish” guide to combat corruption in the fishing industry and dialogues on gender in maritime law enforcement. \n<\/p>\n

\nCurrently, I lead the \u201cR\u00e9seau des Femmes pour le D\u00e9veloppement Durable,\u201d a network focusing on gender equality, poverty reduction, and the implementation of SDGs, with a focus on women\u2019s empowerment in sectors like health, education, peace, security, and sustainable economies.\n<\/p>\n

\nSince December 2020, I have served as Technical Adviser to the Managing Director of ANAM, coordinating strategies and tasks as assigned by the General Director.\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
