Construction work on the center to host the West African Regional Maritime Rescue Coordination Center to promote the search and rescue efforts is nearing completion in Monrovia, Liberia.
The centre will serve Liberia, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Guinea and Cote d’Ivoire.
Eight years ago, at the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Conference on Search and Rescue and the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System held in Florence, Italy, Liberia was selected to host the Regional Maritime Rescue Coordination Center (MRCC) for the five countries.
A multilateral agreement for the center was signed in 2007 by and between the governments of the five countries.
