The program was a unique opportunity to learn about this 57 member state organization, which supports police reform efforts across three continents. There was a lot of interest from the delegates in our ICT4COP research, and after the meeting Ingrid met with Bjørn Tore Saltvik, Adviser on Police Development and Reform in the OSCE Secretariate, to learn more of OSCE’s work in police reform, and discuss possible areas of future collaboration.
