Following the official launch of the CyberSouth+ project, the Cybercrime Programme Office of the Council of Europe had meetings with representatives of the Jordanian Ministry of Justice, Judicial Council, Judicial Institute, Financial intelligence Unit, Cybercrime Unit, Jordanian Armed Forces and Ministry of Foreign Affairs to discuss on the enhancement of the national legislation and agree on activities under the new project phase.
Discussions on the Convention on Cybercrime (Budapest Convention), new data protection law and coordination between cybercrime and cybersecurity actors led to identifying further areas of co-operation.
The visit provided also the opportunity to meet with representatives of the European Union (EU) Delegation to Jordan, United States Embassy (USAID) and The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) to coordinate and discuss synergies in the criminal justice sector.
