Opportunity SINLEC10CA0003EUR02252010: PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Georgia Law Enforcement Exchange Program is a two-part program. The first part is an intensive 10-day visitation program by Country of Georgia nationals to the U.S., designed to enhance law enforcement executive development, introduce contemporary management practices, exchange current policing methodologies/technology, discuss evolving trends in criminology, understand crime trends, discuss professional development techniques, integrate protection of civil rights/liberties into police use of force practices and promote international cooperation for the provision of better law enforcement services. The senior level law enforcement, crime lab and training personnel from the Government of Georgia will be hosted by various U.S. law enforcement agencies - at the federal, state, and local level - to review practices and policies necessary to professionalize law enforcement services. The program involves briefings, demonstrations, site visits and personal conversations with state law enforcement personnel in the areas of traffic management, patrol operations, supervision/management practices, crowd management, use of force/less lethal options, community policing, crime lab operations, training management and law enforcement relations with other law enforcement agencies and legislative bodies. The second part of the program involves U.S. law enforcement managers visiting the Country of Georgia. The grantee would select ten senior level law enforcement managers who applied to participate in the program and were selected using specialized criteria (education, length of service, knowledge of contemporary administration and management of law enforcement, and ability to contribute to the success of the program). These managers will tour the country of Georgia's Police Academy, forensics labs, training centers and regional policing sites across Georgia during a twelve day period. The delegation will be composed of ten executive law enforcement personnel from the Government of Georgia, two translators, two representatives from INL and representatives from the grantee. At the end of the trip, the members of the program will be debriefed and their review of the police will be memorialized along with recommendations for additional training or development to help modernize the Georgian law enforcement services. This report, after formal review, will be shared with the Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs and will become a supplemental to the training plan used by INL in its efforts to assist the Georgian government. The goal of the program is to support the extensive USG-funded law enforcement development program underway in Georgia to redevelop Georgian law enforcement agencies. These programs involve a change in philosophy from reactive to proactive policing; development of a community policing strategy; development of policies, procedures and training that will continue the professionalization of the law enforcement services; and the development of long-term strategic plans and visions for the law enforcement community development. These plans are outside of the scope of experiences currently possessed by the Georgians and the use of an intensive exchange program will provide the impetus, desire and "roadmap" upon which the Georgians can develop the skills desired by USG sponsored programs. This grant may include a third part, entailing additional Georgian law enforcement managers visiting the U.S., and/or additional U.S. law enforcement managers visiting the Country of Georgia. These further visits would be funded under an amendment or amendments to this grant, the total of which will not exceed 50% of the original grant award amount. The details of these visits will be coordinated between the grantee and INL. The grantee would submit a proposed amended program plan and budget for additional visits for consideration by INL. The purpose of the visits should fall within the scope of the original grant, although the grant end date may be extended if necessary. Funding of the original award does not guarantee INL funding of award amendments. Short Term Goals: - Delegates from the Government of Georgia will receive briefings and observe professional management of law enforcement agencies, training and crime lab management. These briefings will complement the development of policies, procedures and strategic plans that are already underway with in-country USG programs; - Delegates will receive training materials, policy and doctrine that will allow them to implement changes within their own organizations, which are currently being advocated and supported by the USG; - Delegates will observe application of policing methods in both rule of law and community policing environments that are currently being supported by USG programs underway in Georgia; - Delegates will observe the rules of evidence, report writing and other behaviors that will be required under the new Criminal Procedure Code that takes effect in Georgia in 2010 and which were influenced by USG personnel working with the Georgian government; - Selection of a delegation from the U.S. to visit Georgia in late fall of 2010; - Delegates will observe and utilize professional police tools that could benefit the growth and development of their agencies advocated by the USG; and, - Delegates will form relationships with other chief executives that will encourage the exchange of policies and development information. Long Term Goals: - The USG has an extensive law enforcement development program underway in Georgia to redevelop the Georgian law enforcement agencies. These programs involve a change in philosophy from reactive to proactive policing. Development of a community policing strategy. Development of policies, procedures and training that will continue the professionalization of the law enforcement services; and the development of long-term strategic plans and visions for the law enforcement community development. All of these plans are outside of the scope of experiences currently possessed by the Georgians and the use of an intensive exchange program will provide the impetus, desire and "roadmap" upon which the Georgians can develop the skills desired by USG sponsored programs; - Establishment of a long-term relationship between the U.S. partner and Georgia for sharing of law enforcement knowledge and practices; - Formation of personal/professional relationships that encourage exchange of practice, policy and procedures; - Delegates from the U.S. will provide feedback on the existing state of the police in Georgia while also providing suggestions of additional training/development that may need to occur to continue professionalization of the Georgian Police Services; and, - Continued professional development and assistance by program participants that occurs outside of both grantee and INL channels. Performance Measurement: - Completion of training in the U.S. for ten Georgian law enforcement officials; - Completion of training in country of Georgia of Georgian law enforcement officials; - Positive feedback received by Georgian participants of exchange program: After each program an in-depth interview is conducted with all participants to review their perception of the professional experience they acquired. In addition, an extensive written evaluation survey is completed by program participants and is then shared with all participants after its tabulation. Input is also sought from the host agencies to assess the quality of the professional and social hospitality accorded to the visitors. This feedback drawn from participants and host agencies is then systematically shared with future participants and host agencies alike. The feedback is used as a monitoring device and as an assessment device to then implement changes in the program in real time and for future plans. Expectations of program planners (both Georgian and U.S.) will be contrasted with participants' perception of program impact; - Long term impact will be measure by the mode/rate of implementation of what was learned.
