Note
"This guidebook provides policy guidance on central issues that can have an impact on the success or failure of police efforts to harness a community-policing approach to preventing terrorism and countering VERLT [Violence extremism and radicalization that lead to terrorism]. The guidebook is, therefore, primarily intended for policymakers and senior police professionals. However, it may also be a useful resource for members of civil society with an interest in these issues, in particular community leaders. It can serve as a common reference to promote mutual understanding and trust, as well as to facilitate dialogue between the police and members of the public on the threat of terrorism and VERLT; the human rights and fundamental freedoms at stake in preventing terrorism; the potential role of communities in preventing terrorism; and the way the police and the public can effectively approach accountability, engagement and co-operation in preventing terrorism."--Page 25.
