Conseil Européen des Syndicats de Police | CESP

The European Council of Police Trade Unions intends to fully take part in the realisation of this new judicial and police European space. Its objective is to group professionals of the security whose ground experience put them into a position of proposing adequate and sometimes alternative solutions to institutional responses. It makes a point of raising this daring but essential challenge, the creation of an unified, interdependent and effective Europe of the Police officers. Founded in 1988 in Avila (Spain), the European Council of Police Unions comprises 300,000 police officers in 15 countries of Europe. In 1991, it was officially recognised by the Council of Europe as a Non-Governmental Organisation with a consultative status and is a member of the Joint Commission of the NGO since 1998. The CESP is the outcome of a project to create a European Union Space for polices and from this, came an agreement to form an independent organisation when the opening of borders became a reality.
