COP Donkor called for responsible data management and improved regional collaboration in law enforcement.
She said information was the lifeline of international police cooperation but must be obtained, shared and used lawfully to safeguard the integrity of policing and the safety of citizens.
“The right information in the wrong hands can cause harm, which is why data protection remains central to effective and ethical policing,” she said.
COP Donkor said that data protection was not only about privacy but also about building trust, saving lives and sustaining global policing partnerships.
