In general the CSI enjoyed very good relations with Host Country institutions as witnessed by the former President during her surprise visit in August and the letter from the Minister of Interior in October both supporting the continuation of the CSI. Building of Confidence between Law Enforcement Agencies and Communities Most notably the CSI was able to establish dialogue and co-operation between its police counterparts and communities. Throughout the year, it trained and mentored Neighbourhood Inspectors in basic community policing techniques and concepts. The CSI improved the capacity for outreach and outlook of the local district police forces. Furthermore, it empowered citizens to involve themselves in the resolution of their own security needs. The fundamental means for achieving these undertakings have been the establishment of the various instruments of the project as well as the embedding of the International Police Consultants in district substations and regional headquarters. The instruments introduced by the CSI included the Community Safety Working Groups (CSWGs), the Mobile Police Receptions (MPRs) and the Community Initiative Fund (CIF). CSWGs were established in the spring of 2011 as a primary initiative by the CSI. They bring together district police inspectors and community representatives on a monthly basis. They are chaired by either the Chief of Neighbourhood Inspectors or the Chief of Public Peace and Order. With some variety among the districts the agenda has most often been prepared by the CSI though technically it should be done by the chairman. The CSI was pushing for greater ownership of the meetings by the police and started to properly hand over this preparation to the chairs. The meetings enabled discussion on community-related problems and possible solutions. While the issue of police violations was only once brought to discussion in 2011, there were discussions on a wide variety of community-related social, administrative and petty crimerelated matters. However, the utilisation of the forums’ potential to propose solutions was somewhat untapped. Nevertheless, CSWGs were successfully used to plan various small projects, joint events and MPR schedules with broad input on best locations to visit. Co-operation with Local Crime Prevention Centres (LCPCs). These security structures have been set up at the community level by the MOI since 2006. In 2011, there were over 560 such centres existing in the country. They are local commissions composed of representatives of local administration, youth groups, Aksakal Court, woman groups and community police officers dealing with issues of security at the community level. In 2011, the CSI was also closely co-operating with theses structures, introducing the concepts of CSWGs and MPRs to them and jointly organizing numerous community events. The MPRs were deployed in late July and began operations in August. The MPRs were first introduced during two specifically organized Police Open Days and have been present at other similar events or celebratory occasions. They were suspended during the presidential election period and subsequent inauguration in order to deploy Neighbourhood Inspectors within other security arrangements. Since their start of operation several thousands of people were made familiar with the MPRs and they visited over a hundred different settlements. They collected numerous complaints of both criminal and administrative nature as well as general community problems. The former being forwarded to duty officers and the latter to Neighbourhood Inspectors. One pertinent feature of the CSI's engagement with local and international organizations was to vouch for the MPRs and thus assist in raising positive awareness about and trust in them. The CIF was introduced as an instrument to generate small project activities which specifically target problems encountered by the MPRs or otherwise identified in the CSWG. 110
