The United Nations Chiefs of Police Summit (UNCOPS) 2018 is a key event for police leaders around the world. UNCOPS provides a unique platform for police leaders, key partners and senior UN representatives to discuss how to:

  • Maximise the value of UN Police to contribute to preventing and addressing global peace and security challenges
  • Leverage the complementarity between UN and national policing efforts in addressing the impact of transnational threats
  • Resolve relevant national policing challenges through an exchange of lessons learned and best practices from UN policing
  • Optimally leverage skills and knowledge acquired by officers returning from UN deployments at home
  • Overcome gaps and generate smart police capacity and capabilities to increase impact through improved performance
  • Maintain this critical networking platform in the future
