EUCAP Sahel Niger contributes to the development of an integrated, coherent, sustainable, and human rights-based approach among the various Nigerien security agencies in the fight against terrorism and organised crime. The mission gives advice and training to support the Nigerien authorities' efforts to strengthen their security capabilities. Around 120 international experts, the majority of whom are from European security forces and justice departments, are permanently deployed in Niamey. In July 2014 the mission objectives were adjusted in the light of the experience gained in the first years. During the current mandate, EUCAP is increasing its assistance to Niger's regions, in particular the Agadez region (establishment of a permanent branch), which is facing the highest number of security threats, to ensure better control of irregular migration and related crimes, such as human smuggling, arms or drugs trafficking or document fraud.. EUCAP Sahel Niger is also increasing its cooperation with the other CSDP missions in the region, namely EUBAM Libya and especially EUCAP Sahel Mali.   Mission Objectives 1. Help Niger's security forces achieve interoperability and develop their operating strategies. 2. Strengthen the Nigerien security sector's expertise in combating terrorism and organised crime. 3. Improve the human resources, training and logistics management policies to ensure that the achievements made under objectives 1 and 2 can be sustained. 4. Support the development of regional and international coordination in the fight against terrorism and organised crime. 5. Support the security forces' capability to better control migration flows and to combat irregular migration and associated criminal activity more effectively.
