Police Reform Programme (Phase-II) Foreword The 2012 Annual Report details the third year of the Police Reform Programme (Phase II). The Police Reform Programme (PRP) is proud to continue supporting the Bangladesh Police during this ongoing period of reform, transforming the organization into a modern service oriented institution which respects the rule of law and upholds human rights. I am pleased to note that the PRP successfully completed its third year of operations in 2012 with distinguished progress despite facing numerous challenges. This report highlights the progress made under individual components and provides elements of police reform initiatives undertaken by the project. I would like to highlight a few of the PRP's key achievements made in 2012. The PRP provided significant support to the Bangladesh Police in the development of the Bangladesh Police Strategic Plan 2012-2014 which establishes the organization's priorities for the next three years. Another significant outcome was the commencement of the Draft Police Ordinance review by a police committee, chaired by myself, after the Ordinance was returned from the Ministry of Home Affairs. The two Victim Support Centres in Dhaka and Rangamati established with PRP support, provided protection and assistance to 498 victims during 2012. The PRP is also supporting the construction of six new Victim Support Centres which are expected to be finished by 2013. These new Victim Support Centres will increase services provided to victims of crime by referring victims to appropriate supporting agencies. The PRP is also aiding in the construction of fifteen service delivery centres at Model Thanas with about 75% of the construction work currently completed. After completion, I expect that members of the community will receive improved police services from these Model Thanas and I am hopeful that this will encourage the establishment of similar service delivery centres in Bangladesh. In terms of capacity building, a total of 7,821 members of the Bangladesh Police attended PRP-supported training workshops. I am fully confident that those police officers will use the knowledge, skills, and change in attitude gained from the capacity building initiative to improve services they provide to members of the community. Additionally, a total of 2,324 Community Policing Forum members also participated in joint training initiatives organized by the Bangladesh Police and the PRP. I would like to express my gratitude and sincere appreciation to all parties involved, particularly to the Bangladesh Police, Ministry of Home Affairs, United Kingdom's Department for International Development (UKaid), and UNDP for their continued support and cooperation. I would also like to convey my most earnest appreciation to the members of the Project Steering Committee and the Project Implementation Committee for their invaluable advice on strategic issues and project implementation. I hope this report will provide crucial information to government agencies, management, and other stakeholders on the progress, challenges, and lessons learned by the Police Reform Md.
