A public-health approach to policing
www.aidsalliance.org - "It was Commissioner Pim Jansonious who set the tone when he stressed the importance of developing a “socially-minded” and “representative” police force that works in partnership with other agencies to protect all people - no matter which community they belong to.
He was speaking to an audience of more than 25 law enforcement officials, decision makers and civil society activists from Indonesia, Kenya, Mozambique, Myanmar, Nigeria, Uganda, Vietnam and Zimbabwe, exploring how the Dutch police work with marginalised communities, including people who use drugs and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people. The event was hosted by the Alliance within the Partnership to Inspire, Transform and connect the HIV response (PITCH) programme on the fringes of the International AIDS Conference in Amsterdam in July."
