OSCE BiH Mission Wraps Up Inter-Agency Co-operation Workshop

OSCE

More than 50 representatives from the BiH High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council, law enforcement agencies, and institutions across the country gathered in Jahorina for a workshop organized by the OSCE Mission to BiH titled "Instituting and Facilitating Regular Inter-agency Meetings and Briefings Between Agencies and Prosecution".

The workshop's primary objective was to address structural requirements and to improve inter-agency co-operation by establishing ILP relevance, ensuring consistent use of criminal intelligence information and analyses in criminal proceedings as well as facilitating regular meetings and briefings between law enforcement agencies and the prosecution.

"To successfully establish an Intelligence-led Policing (ILP)-based framework, Bosnia and Herzegovina needs to modernize its law enforcement structures. This involves capacity building, acquiring new equipment, providing training, and fostering improved criminal intelligence exchange among all stakeholders in the justice sector," said Thomas Busch, Deputy Head of the OSCE Mission to BiH. "Consistent application of ILP approaches will ensure that Bosnia and Herzegovina is well-equipped to implement robust, holistic, and effective crime prevention strategies."

This initiative is part of the OSCE Mission to BiH project titled "Enhancing Intelligence-led Policing to Combat Serious Security Threats and Crimes," implemented with the generous support of Germany, Norway, Liechtenstein, Türkiye, Austria, and Luxembourg.
