Police Professional 20/7/2020 News Policing Domestic Violence: Strategy, Competence, Training An effective implementation of domestic violence (DV) strategy and policy requires well-trained and competent employees. The article describes the DV training provisions offered for the basic degree police students in IMPRODOVA partner countries (Austria, France, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Portugal, Scotland, and Slovenia). Contents and subject matters of available training courses and curricula are assessed in relation to policy recommendations, especially the Istanbul Convention. Results show that competencies that are relevant in identifying, intervening and preventing DV are usually presented to students in the context of more general courses. Policing of DV is rarely offered explicitly as a special course, or a clearly defined section in a larger module. Most of the important subject matters of DV, such as the needs of the victims, equality and human rights, are covered well in most classes. However, DV risk assessment is commonly introduced later in specialist courses. Even though generic policing competencies form the foundation and have a wide applicability in various situations, including DV encounters, there is a danger that students do not acquire a comprehensive understanding of DV if DV-related information is scattered all over the curriculum and not presented as a whole. European Law Enforcement Research Bulletin 20/7/2020 Research article The Emergence and Evolution of Lesbian and Gay Police Associations in Europe For nearly 30 years, LGBT police associations have been working within police agencies to create better working conditions for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) officers and staff as well as to improve relations between the agencies and LGBT communities. The exploratory research examines the formation, structure, and impact of these associations on police agencies throughout Europe. Based on focus group and survey data from eight lesbian and gay police associations in Europe, this research highlights unique and common elements of their evolution and articulates a path forward to stay relevant in ever-changing political and social environments. Based on the data gathered, there appear to be opportunities to expand the efforts of these associations to include more visibility and open interactions with local LGBT communities. Through collective action and support via the European LGBT police association, current lesbian and gay police associations could be utilized to realize and expand LGBT police associations in other parts of Europe and beyond.
