             ABOUT

This CERIS webinar will be dedicated to the future of community policing. As communities evolve and security challenges become more complex, strengthening trust, collaboration, and innovation in policing has never been more critical. This webinar brings together experts, researchers, practitioners, and innovators from across Europe to explore how research and capability development can meaningfully support community-based policing approaches.

During this session, we will:

  • Present and share cutting-edge European research and innovation in the field of community policing.
  • Highlight the updated state of the art of European research, offering insights into emerging trends and developments.
  • Discuss capability needs, focusing on what practitioners and policymakers require to support effective community policing strategies.
  • Explore opportunities for innovation uptake, examining how research results can be translated into real-world solutions.

In this webinar, we will highlight work carried out in several important European initiatives, including UNITY, INSPEC2T, KOBAN, BTL‑COP and the VOW project.

This webinar offers an excellent opportunity to learn, exchange ideas, and connect with professionals committed to strengthening the relationship between law enforcement and the communities they serve.
