CCI

Cutting Crime Impact

The objective of the CCI project is to allow the police and other authorities, both local and national, in particular those responsible for security policies, to reduce the impact of petty crime and, as far as possible, prevent it altogether. The project focuses essentially on petty crime that has a negative impact upon citizens – violent assault, burglary, theft and antisocial behaviour – and that which creates an atmosphere of insecurity. CCI will design, develop and demonstrate four Toolkits covering: (i) predictive policing; (ii) community policing; (iii) crime prevention through urban design and planning; and (iv) measuring and mitigating citizens’ feelings of insecurity.

ProTECT

Public Resilience using TEchnology to Counter Terrorism

The project aims to strengthen local authorities’ capabilities in public spaces protection by putting in place an overarching concept where tools, technology, training and field demonstrations will lead to situational awareness and improve direct responses to secure public places before, during and after a terrorist threat.

PACTESUR

Protecting Allied Cities against TErrorism by Securing Urban aReas

The project aims to build the capacities of cities and local actors in the field of the security of public spaces vulnerable to terrorist threats among others.It will draw conclusions from lessons learnt and create training materials for security forces, information tools for citizens and guidelines for local authorities to build up knowledge on how to design better policies to secure public spaces.

BRIDGE

Building resilience to reduce polarisation and growing extremism

The project’s objective is to raise awareness among local actors and strengthen their capacity to reduce individual and collective vulnerability to radicalisation while at the same time mitigating the phenomenon of polarisation.

Secu4All

Secu4All seeks to strengthen the capabilities of local and regional authorities in ensuring the security of public spaces and the protection of soft targets (i.e. sport venues, shopping malls, schools, transport systems…) against potential risks. The Led by Efus, the two-year long project will provide training to local and regional authorities to provide them with adequate knowledge and tools in order for them to be able to cooperate with a broad range of local stakeholders from both the public and private sector. Secu4All intends to do just that: it will develop training content providing local authorities with theoretical and practical knowledge so that they can improve their local prevention actions or programmes to safeguard their public spaces against risks.
