showers and toilets. This allowed the CPTC to host residential training for Neighbourhood Inspectors (NIs) and Juvenile Delinquency Inspectors (JDIs) from the southern region. Additional support for the staff of the CPTC was carried out, including equipping the instructors’ offices on the basis of a donation agreement. PRP’s efforts in developing the CPTC resulted in the delivery of the first three-week residential training of NIs and JDIs. The first CPTC course included 22 NIs as well as 12 police officers from the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. The participation of Afghan officers was the outcome of co-ordination between the PRP, Afghan authorities, the European Police Mission in Afghanistan (EUPOL), and the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA). The partner agencies also observed the development programme at the CPTC and the post-course pilot scheme developed by the PRP and implemented by the CSI. During the NI course, faculty staff of the Secondary Police School assisted an international trainer. All future courses were planned to be conducted by dedicated faculty staff. In 2012, the PRP began enhancing the capacities of Local Crime Prevention Centres (LCPCs). This included qualitative research and legislative analysis in conjunction with a special working group. From preparatory work in 2011 a “National Forum” to present the results of this research was conducted in Bishkek in 2012. The forum gathered representatives from the Parliament, Government, MoI, NGOs and other stakeholders. Based on the analysis, recommendations were developed by the working group representing the Parliament, Government, MoI, lawyers, civil society and an expert in the police sphere for further revision and analysis of the legislation regulating LCPC work. In 2012, the PRP initiated a pilot project on Neighbourhood Management (NM) in nine project sites in the southern region, including Osh city. The project aimed to strengthen mutual trust and co-operation between NIs and LCPCs as well as CSI advisers. This pilot project was initiated after a study tour to Northern Ireland. In total, seven people, representing the MoI, the Osh city Mayor’s office, middle-ranking police officers, faculty staff of the Secondary Police School in Osh and the CSI, participated in the study tour. Following the study tour, a two-day training course was conducted by an international consultant on the workbooks and guidebooks that allowed the participants to improve their knowledge on neighbourhood management principles. After training, joint groups of NIs and LCPC representatives, mentored by CSI advisers, undertook practical work in the communities for 12 weeks and documented the progress of their work. In order to assess the effectiveness of police work in the protection of children’s rights, the organization Children’s Rights Defenders League conducted a complex assessment of JDI activities in the seven provinces, as well as Osh and Bishkek cities. Based on assessment findings recommendations were worked out jointly with the MoI on how to optimize the JDI structure and enhance its capacity. In addition, a training manual was developed for use in delivering advanced and specialized training for JDIs. The ToT on the practical use of the training manual was conducted for two groups of 21 local trainers from the Police Academy and Secondary Police School. Police booths in Osh city located in strategic districts were renovated and fully equipped (tables, chairs, telephones, heaters and safes). The main support focused on increasing the presence of police officers at locations and preventing crimes. The official inauguration ceremony was broadcasted by local media with participation of the Osh city police department and CSI advisers. The training room at the Kyzyl-Kyia police station and the public reception room at the BazarKorgon police station were renovated to facilitate police-public meetings. The opening ceremonies were organized by the regional police departments and CSI advisers. Press releases were prepared and distributed 133
