Ø Number 2: The widest involvement possible of all the Security Sector actors and sharing roles and responsibilities, both in the design of the National Security Policy and in the definition of strategies and implementation of initiatives. At this stage, it should be recalled that the State always holds the key role of orientation, promotion, monitoring and control of security actions. But its action, which was exclusive, is henceforth complemented thanks to the empowerment of other security sector actors. Towards this end, two orientations were mapped out, namely: ü The creation of consultative bodies at the national, regional and local levels, to adequately cater for security issues; ü The set up of a coherent communication strategy to inform, sensitize and train decision-makers and the public at large, in order to ensure their adherence to the new security policy and appropriate it.. Ø Number 3: Taking into consideration the national, sub­regional, regional and international dimensions of security while formulating target goals. This is necessary, in as much as security challenges are many, multifaceted, complex and, sometimes, unpredictable. Besides, the same challenges manifest themselves to all countries worldwide, at different magnitudes. Consequently, common sense commands connecting strategies (national and international) and pulling available means together to build up capacities to squarely check and annihilate the factors behind internal and external insecurity, particularly transborder and transnational crime. 43
