POLICE-RELATED ACTIVITIES OF FIELD OPERATIONS SOUTH-EASTERN EUROPE 4.5 Mission to Serbia S outh - Eastern E urope 4.6 Mission to Skopje Introduction The work of the Police Development Unit (PDU) of the OSCE Mission to Skopje (the Mission) is based on the Mission’s original mandate of 1992 on policing and on the OSCE MC and PC decisions stemming from the Ohrid Framework Agreement (OFA) in 2001. According to the provisions in Annex C of the OFA, the Mission was called upon to assist in a number of specific areas of policing, which were added to the initial mandate. These included the recruitment and training of more than 1,000 new police cadets from minority communities, as well as a phased and co-ordinated redeployment of the national police personnel to the former crisis areas. Following the completion of the above task, the Mission’s PDU has been supporting law enforcement agencies, particularly the MoI, in developing a depoliticized, professional service in line with international democratic principles and human rights standards leading to comprehensive security by delivering and facilitating police training, supporting the development and implementation of the National Police Reform processes and providing expertise at the policy and planning level.
