Published purpose

This project aims to increase the capacity of local police and civil society to work together to address security issues in Ninewah and Anbar, Iraq through the use of community policing practices. Police forces are currently supporting other Iraqi Security Forces in their fight against Daesh; however as the latter loses ground there is a need for local police forces to provide security as a service to the populace in areas liberated from Daesh. Project activities include: (1) training local police and civil society on community policing; (2) establishing community police forums; (3) rehabilitating police stations; and (4) assessing the security needs of local women and youth in targeted areas.
