In addition, the Mission organized a three-day study visit to Croatia for community policing
managers. The objective of the visit was to compare the implementation of the community
policing strategies in both countries in order to identify best practices and lessons learned.
The main three key findings from the visit were that: the Montenegrin strategy for
implementation of community police should mirror the Croatian strategy for implantation; the
training which had been already given by the OSCE Police School in Danilovgrad was
consistent with the Croatian model and had the same apparent genesis; and the OSCE
should continue training of community policing officers and their Supervisors with more
emphasis on transition in 2012.
On 3-5 October, the Mission and two Montenegrin community policing managers participated
at the “6th Regional Community Policing Forum” hosted by the Albanian State Police in
Tirana and organized by SEPCA, the Swiss Agency for Development and the OSCE
Presence in Albania. The conference focused on two main topics: Prevention of Youth
Delinquency and Crimes; and Domestic Violence. The forum assessed the current status of
youth delinquency and domestic violence in the region and recommended relevant
preventive measures.
On 18-19 October, the Mission and one Montenegrin community policing manager
participated at the regional “Community Policing Conference” organized by the OSCE
Mission in Kosovo (see also 4.2).
On 6 December, the Mission facilitated a one-day conference on “Lessons Learned in the
Implementation of Community Policing for the Border Police in Montenegro”. The aim of the
event was to bring together identified Community Police Contact Officers and Community
Policing Commissioners in order to discuss, evaluate and exchange experiences gained
during the project implementation. Reported best practices were going to be used as
guidance for future reference.

effective visual aid, power point presentations, and personal characteristics of a good
presenter.
On 13-17 June, the Mission, in co-operation with the Police Directorate and the Police
Academy, organized four one-day training events on “On-Call Centre Operations”. 80 shift
leaders, together with duty officers, finished the course provided by Slovenian experts. The
training focused on communication skills and new trends in On-Call Centre Operations due
to planned changes in the structure of the Dispatch Service of the Police Directorate.
On 4-6 October, the Mission, in co-operation with the Police Directorate and the Police
Academy, organized three additional one-day training courses on “On-Call Centre
