The World Border Security Congress will discuss and debate policies, challenges and new technologies that contribute towards safe and secure border and migration...

World Border Security Congress, Casablanca, Morocco, 21st-23rd March 2017.

The 2017 World Border Security Congress, supported by the Organization for Security & Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), International Security Industry Organisation, National Security Resilience Consortium and International Association of CIP Professionals, is the 5th global border event to be organised by Torch Marketing and KNM Media and its first on the African continent.

As conflicts in the Middle East and Africa continue unabated the migration crisis shows no sign of slowing. With the effective closure of migration routes through the Balkans the crisis has shifted once again to the coasts of Morocco and other North African countries, becoming the point of departure for thousands of migrant and refugee boats heading for southern Europe.

With its proximity to territory held by Islamic State, terrorism poses a real threat to Morocco the great-er Maghreb region as well as the nearby southern European states. So effective border security and co-operation is key to all international partners in the region and the world.

The World Border Security Congress is a high level 3 day event that will discuss and debate current and future policies, implementation issues and challenges as well as new and developing technologies that contribute towards safe and secure border and migration management.
