the police service in improving prevention of violence at the local level, thus contributing to a safer environment for youth throughout the country. • In November, the Mission supported the Belgrade Police District in implementing its local action plan through a series of outreach activities that promote safe behaviour on the Internet for school children. Senior police professionals engaged actors from local government and other relevant institutions and organized lectures in 16 primary schools in two Belgrade municipalities. Through these activities, message on preventative behaviour when using internet were passed to more than 1,500 school children and their parents. • In November, the local action plan addressing the importance of co-operation between police and other local stakeholders in cases of domestic violence, entitled “If you are a victim you are not alone”, was launched in Krusevac. The Krusevac Police District developed and implemented the plan with Mission support. Through this activity, the Mission trained 25 local stakeholders to raise awareness among selected public officials and civil society representatives on the provisions of the Government’s Overall Protocol on Actions and Cooperation of Institutions, Organizations and State Agencies in Cases of Violence against Women in Family and Close Relations on proper institutional support to victims, means of protection and reduction of domestic violence cases. • On 28 November, the Mission participated at the event which marked the closing of implementation of a local action plan to address domestic violence issues, developed by Leskovac Police District. The Mission supported implementation of this prevention-oriented local action plan, which put an emphasis on including different local stakeholders, such as social welfare organizations and civil society, in addressing challenges of domestic violence. On 10 April, the Mission, together with the MoI, organized a discussion panel on the needs and challenges for preventing violence among youth in Novi Pazar. Participants identified joint opportunities for addressing peer violence at the local level in an effort to develop police-public partnerships and improve crime prevention practices among police districts. According to police data, there had been an increase in youth violence in the municipality compared to the same period in 2013. Participants agreed on the need for greater joint efforts to tackle youth issues and to conduct crime reduction activities. The Mission offered its assistance and support to enhance such co-operation, potentially through the Municipal Safety Councils. On 8 May, the Mission, together with the Serbian Police and Criminology Studies Academy, launched an OSCE publication covering the problem of youth and violence related to football in Serbia. The Mission produced the booklet Youth and Hooliganism in Sports Events, based on a survey conducted in 25 secondary schools throughout Serbia with a sample of 3,662 pupils. The survey addressed issues of football hooliganism, awareness of young people, involvement in fan groups, delinquent behaviour, alcohol and drug abuse and linkages to racism and intolerance. The MoI plans to consult this publication (http://www.osce.org/serbia/118397) to develop activities addressing those issues. Such a change in training methods is also envisaged by the National Strategy for Combatting Sports Violence and Misconduct at Sport Events. From 7-10 July, the Mission supported the participation of two young participants from Serbian civil society at the Regional Conference on Youth and Security in Pristina. An intern at the Belgrade Centre for Security Policy and an Associate of the Youth Education Committee actively participated with other open-minded youth from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, as well as 94
