4.3 Mission in Kosovo
Introduction
Department for Security and Public Safety
The OSCE Mission in Kosovo (the Mission), the largest OSCE field operation, is mandated
with institution and democracy building, and promoting human rights and the rule of law. In
1999, the OSCE was mandated with training the new police service to uphold human rights
and democratic policing principles. To do so, the Mission’s Department of Police Education
and Development (DPED) created an institution called the Kosovo Police Service School that in
2006 evolved into the Kosovo Centre for Public Safety Education and Development (KCPSED)
and in 2011 into the Kosovo Academy for Public Safety (KAPS). In order to better reflect the
broader context of its programmes in justice, safety and security sector development, the
DPED became the Department for Security and Public Safety (DSPS) in 2006.
