The European Union Agency for Law Enforcement (CEPOL) is looking for a Co-chair and experts contributing to the Expert Group on Fundamental Rights.
Fundamental rights are one of the core values of the European Union. CEPOL has always ensured that training on fundamental rights for law enforcement receives proper attention and features high on the CEPOL agenda. The European Commission recently has issued several EU strategies and action plans on fundamental rights, including hate crime, racism, victims’ rights and child protection, which must be reflected in CEPOL’s training strategy and products on fundamental rights and related issues.
Based on its 2021 work programme, CEPOL establishes the Expert Group on Fundamental Rights whose mandate will be to support CEPOL’s strategy for training on Fundamental Rights, Hate Crime and related issues and help promote the integration of fundamental rights and related issues as a horizontal topic in the CEPOL training portfolio.
The Expert Group will meet 4-5 times online and, if possible, in one physical meeting in the second half of 2021. The outcomes of this Expert Group’s work will be reported to the CEPOL Management Board at the beginning of 2022.
The issues to be considered under Fundamental Rights at present are the following (not concluding):
