Community-Oriented Policing for CVE Capacity: Adopting the Ethos Through Enhanced Training

Community-Oriented Policing for CVE Capacity: Adopting the Ethos through Enhanced Training expands upon the links between a heavy-handed police force as a key driver of radicalization to violent extremism. Through assessing existing international police academy curriculum, it contends that the existing training program for new recruits and in-service officers does not support a community oriented policing ethos and can potentially impede the ability of officers to interact proactively with their community. In the hopes of shifting the attitude and behavior of international law enforcement training institutions, it then introduces additional knowledge and skills-based sessions of instruction that can be included in the larger curriculum, as well as adult-learning principles and andragogical good practice, to support the development of a community-oriented ethos throughout police service.
