Policing in Europe is entering a new phase

It is more exposed, more complex, and more essential than ever. Police officers are no longer only maintaining public order. They are increasingly operating at the frontline of societal stability, hybrid threats and democratic resilience.

Europe is asking more of its police officers than ever before. If policing is to meet these expectations, it must be treated as a strategic priority, not an afterthought

EuroCOP calls on decision-makers at national and European level to recognise this shift and act accordingly
