"The Nicaraguan Community Policing Model"
Noon Pacific time/ 1pm Nicaragua/ 3pm Eastern/ 8pm Greenwich UK
Nicaraguan police ensuring safety during the July 19 Revolution anniversary celebration in Managua
How do the Nicaraguan police sustain one of the lowest crime rates, and highest levels of citizen trust, in all of Latin America? A key answer is their much-heralded community-based model. Please join us for this 90-minute webinar, with Spanish - English interpretation, focused on these key topics:
- What is the Nicaraguan Community Policing Model?
- What special programs and approaches are used to protect women from violence?
- What were the experiences and activities of the police during the 2018 coup attempt?
Bring your questions! There will be time to address them, after we hear from our prominent speakers:
- Commissioner General Jaime Vanegas Vega, Inspector General of the National Police
- Commissioner General Vilma Rosa Gonzalez, Head of Public Relations of the National Police
