Description:
The PRoTECT project aims to strengthen local authorities’ capabilities in Public Protection by putting in place an overarching concept where tools, technology, training and field demonstrations will lead to situational awareness and improve direct responses to secure public places pre, in, and after a terrorist threat. This cross sectoral project is an initiative of the Core group of the European Network of Law Enforcement Technology Services (ENLETS). The program will produce training materials and assessment tools that will help to raise the awareness of municipal authorities on security concepts and adaptation of technology in the protection of public spaces, share best practices and lessons learned to efficiently apply technology concepts to protect public spaces as well as build collaborations between municipal authorities and law enforcement via existing networks (ENLETS, EFUS).
