Closed

The project is intended to be a response to the most pressing problems that can only be resolved through cooperation at the cross-border level. Increase in cross-border crime is deemed to be one of the most pressing problems encountered at the Lithuanian-Polish border area. Following the abolition of border control at internal borders pursuant to European Union legislation and due to their extremely favorable geographic locations, Lithuania and Poland has become a transit region for further movement of crime into Europe. By joining forces of the Lithuanian and Polish police stations for the common goal: to prevent cross-border crime, including organized crime and smuggling, several solutions regarding the enhancement of cooperation between police stations shall be implemented. The said solutions are as follows: organization of joint trainings and seminars for police officers, during which the said officers shall acquire theoretical and practical knowledge and insight into criminal intelligence and analytical investigation of criminal activities. Additionally, a surveillance network of video surveillance cameras capable of recognizing the vehicle registration number plates, body type and color, an information platform for cooperation in analytical investigation of criminal activities and headquarters for strategic management shall be created as well. These solutions shall enhance the cooperation between the police stations of the two states put a stop to cross-border crime
