Why is the project needed?
Organized crime is a constantly growing and evolving threat. Organized criminal groups use innovative communication tools and invest heavily in advanced technologies. In order to be more efficient, the police must find innovative solutions, adopt and use new advanced technologies and laboratory equipment. It is also very important to maintain cooperation with foreign law enforcement institutions, in order to fight, prevent and investigate organized and cross-border crimes.
The project aims to strengthen the Lithuanian and Norwegian police capacities and cross-border cooperation through sharing best practices in fighting crime, and to increase the Lithuanian police capacities to prevent, disclose and investigate crimes by adopting advanced technologies and undergoing specialized training.
The project includes:
Donor project partner KRIPOS will participate in operational meetings and attend training events. The Lithuanian project partners (LCPB and LPFSC) will participate in training events and use the advanced technologies and equipment acquired within the project.
