On 18 December 2024, we gathered in Belgrade to mark the conclusion of the project ‘Chapter 24 – Strengthening Patrol Management in Serbia’. The project that began in 2019 with the goal of enhancing patrol management capacities in the Republic of Serbia built upon excellent cooperation between the Ministry of Interior of Serbia, Ministry of Interior of Slovenia and Slovenian Police. The project activities empowered over 500 Serbian police officers in the usage of the patrol management system over the last 5 years.

The participants of the concluding event noted that the good cooperation between both sides enabled a safer working environment for the Serbian police while also providing better service to the citizens.

We thank all our partners, especially the Slovenian Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs, the Ministry of Interior of Slovenia and the Slovenian Police, for their support; we also thank the Serbian Ministry of Interior (MUP RS) and the Slovenian Embassy in Serbia for the support and organisation of the final event.

Next week, we are in Serbia to kick off a two-day capacity-building session for the Zrenjanin and Kikinda Police Departments. The session will focus on continuing to expand the patrol management system, which already connects 14 out of 27 PUs in the country.

The workshop will focus on transferring the experience and good practices of the Slovenian police administrations of Novo Mesto and Maribor to their Serbian colleagues, transferring the experience of the Serbian police administration of Sremska Mitrovica, and demonstrating the practical use of the system by the subcontractor ZZI. 

Activities of the project are financed by the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs through the Slovenian Aid and Partnerships programme and supported by the Ministry of Interior of Slovenia and Slovenian Police.

Today, we concluded consultations with the Serbian Ministry of Interior, with the successful collaboration of the Police Directorate of Serbia, the Information and Communication Technology Service (SIKT), the Slovenian Police, the Embassy of Slovenia in Serbia, and CEP as the facilitator of the discussions. Together, we defined a confirmed major step that will lead to the successful conclusion of Project Phase III. According to a detailed plan, the technical implementation of a revised system for patrol management will continue. By the end of 2024, two new police directorates in Serbia will be included in the pilot project.

Discussions showed that the transfer of best practices from Slovenia through the Slovenian Police is of great importance. However, it is also crucial that our partnership enables the adaptation of Slovenian good practices to the requirements and specifics of the Serbian landscape. Our trusted partner, ZZI, makes a significant contribution in this respect.

The patrol management system is a crucial tool that will enable our Serbian partners to facilitate efficient field operations, enhance the safety of civilians and police officers, and rationalize work processes. The system’s importance was further solidified during the recent visit to Slovenia in May 2024.

Activities are part of Slovenian development cooperation, financed by the Slovenian Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs and implemented in cooperation with the Ministry of Interior of Slovenia and the Slovenian police.
