Hosted by GASA and Google, the Trust & Safety Workshop convenes Southern Africa's key fraud-fighting stakeholders from tech and telecoms to banking, regulators and law enforcement, in Johannesburg for one purpose: agreeing practical, collective action against scams.
Why Attend?
A Focused Working Session, Not a Conference
This closed-door, invite-only session is built for decision-makers and practitioners, designed to produce concrete outcomes. Because participation is limited to a small group, attendees can expect candid conversation and real commitments.

A Working Table for Southern Africa's Anti-Fraud Ecosystem
The workshop brings together leaders from banking, telecommunications, technology, cybersecurity, law enforcement, regulation and consumer protection. Through facilitated working groups, participants will agree upon priority areas for collaboration and leave with a shared framework for ongoing coordination.
The workshop is designed to move participants from discussion to action
Emerging Fraud & Scam Trends
A focused review of the current fraud and scam landscape affecting Southern African consumers and institutions, cutting across platforms, sectors and borders.
From Discussion to Delivery
Facilitated working groups and action-planning sessions producing agreed priority areas, practical pilot initiatives deployable within 90 days, and named owners for each.
Cross-Sector Coordination
Establishing a lasting framework for follow-up between technology companies, financial institutions, telcos, regulators, law enforcement and consumer protection bodies.
