KOBAN
KOBAN will create an innovative, research and practice-based Community Policing (CP) initiative, adopting an evidenced based approach focusing on co-creation and collaborative security between LEA and non-LEA community members. LEAs must engage with, and to reassure, communities about safety and security matters in a trustful way. KOBAN’s Capability Model will identify proven methodologies, models, technologies, tools and best practices, and use them as a foundation for future proactive, co-active and reactive CP capabilities, both online and offline.
CENTRIC will be instrumental in building the AI Assistant and App Factory for the development of further CP tools, methods and solutions tailored to the needs of stakeholders and adhering to social, legal, cultural, ethical and gender equality standards. These will be tested and validated in six pilot use cases throughout Europe.
