On Public Councils on the Civil Society Assistance to the Police Reform

The achievement of the police reforming goal in the Republic of Tajikistan (RT) depends on understanding of its role in the modern society. During the sociological surveys initiated by the OSCE, it was revealed that the population considers creation and maintaining of the safe social environment as a main objective of the police in the RT.

Moreover, the indicators such as reducing the number of victims, who became the victims of criminal acts, reducing the fear to become a victim of crime and improving the citizens' opinion on the police performance shall serve as one of the main criteria for assessing the police activity in ensuring the safety of citizens.

Such a formulation and solution of preventive challenges assumes close interaction with the community, which is both a source of information on the rule of law state and a subject capable to implement certain steps to maintain a public order and security. Police should establish such communication channels, which, on the one hand, would allow the public to receive needed for them information from the police to ensure the safe conduct, and on the other hand, would provide an opportunity for the citizens to report on security threats and be involved in setting the priority tasks on public order maintenance.
