    The OSCE Office and the Armenian police signed a co-operation
    agreement today to elaborate a community policing model for Armenia,
    improve the police education system and assess public order management
    preparedness.

    The agreement foresees setting up a joint working group to develop a
    community policing model for Armenia, drawing on a pilot project in
    the Yerevan Arabkir police district that started in April.

    "Creating an atmosphere of trust between the police and the population
    is the philosophy behind the community policing concept supported
    by the OSCE. Working together they can prevent and solve crime much
    more efficiently," said Ambassador Sergey Kapinos, the Head of the
    OSCE Office in Yerevan.

    Another working group will be established to offer recommendations for
    reforming the police education system, and the agreement also envisages
    work with the police to improve the capacity of public order units.

    The OSCE Office in Yerevan has carried out activities under its Police
    Assistance Programme in Armenia since 2005, including the renovation
    of a police training centre for non-commissioned officers that was
    completed in March 2007.
