Background

The Strategic Police Matters Unit (SPMU) at the Secretariat responds to requests from participating States for specific expert advice on policing and police-related activities.

   - Analysing data and formulating conclusive police related proposals with national counterparts of participating States to increase the

   - Designing and implementing activities to facilitate trans-border co-operation between law enforcement institutions related to trans
     national crime activities

   - Graduate from a recognized legal, criminal justice or law-enforcement educational institution;
