JOJ 2026 : Dakar teste son dispositif sécuritaire avec un premier exercice d’état-major
Dakar is accelerating its security preparations ahead of the 2026 Youth Olympic Games (YOG). The Senegalese capital hosted the very first staff exercise of the campaign, a "Table Top Exercise" (TT.EX), conducted without any real deployment of resources on the ground.
The exercise was organized at the initiative of the National Youth Olympic Games Security Committee (CNS-JOJ), which brings together all the Defense and Security Forces (FDS) involved in securing the event. It mobilized all the key players in the security chain, with a clear objective: to test the coordination and interoperability between the Operations Coordination Center (CCO), the Operational Command Posts (PCO), the Tactical Command Posts (PCT), as well as the Venue Security Managers (VSM) of the COJOJ and the Venue Security Commanders (VSC) of the security forces.
Operationally, the TT.EX allowed for the evaluation of several critical points:
• the command system;
• the consistency of deployment orders;
• real-time incident handling;
• the simultaneity of inter-force actions;
• reporting;
• the fluidity of the coordination between VSM and VSC.
Two days, two highlights
The exercise took place over two days. The first day was devoted to the presentation of deployment orders by the various participating forces (Police, Gendarmerie, Armed Forces, National Fire Brigade (BNSP), health services, and Cyber Defense). This step was followed by a rigorous check of inter-force coordination, necessary arbitration, the establishment of command posts, and communication testing.
The second day was devoted exclusively to the launch of the exercise itself, which ended that same day.
Through this large-scale operation, the Senegalese security authorities are demonstrating their commitment to providing a high-security environment for the Dakar 2026 Youth Olympic Games. The approach relies on meticulous preparation, increased responsiveness, and complete synergy between all the structures involved, as the Olympic deadline approaches.
