Workshops on ILP principles, requirements and benefits take place throughout BiH

As part of the OSCE Mission to BiH project Enhancing of Intelligence-led Policing to Combat Serious Security Threats and Crimes (ILP Project), over the past four weeks the Mission organized both a workshop for senior managers of all law enforcement agencies (LEAs) in BiH and ten workshops for operational staff of the State Investigation and Protection Agency, BiH Border Police, BiH Directorate for Co-ordination of Police Bodies,  Service for Foreigners’ Affairs, Indirect Taxation Authority, Brčko District Police, Police Administration of the Federation of BiH, and the police administrations of ministries of interior of nine cantons: Una-Sana; Posavina; Tuzla; Zenica-Doboj; Bosnian-Podrinje; Central Bosnia; Herzegovina-Neretva; West Herzegovina; and Canton 10.

This activity aims to increase awareness of ILP principles, requirements and benefits and to promote ILP use for criminal-intelligence processes and police operations in addressing serious crime and threats to security. 

The senior LEAs' managers also participated in the second meeting of the BiH ILP co-ordination group for steering project activities and deliverables. 

The Mission held all workshops with the generous support of Norway, Germany, Liechtenstein, Turkey, Austria, and Luxembourg.
