On 26 – 27 January 2017 the forth workshop (out of five) for 20 police officers/staff on international standards in pre-trial detention was organized in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.

Two international experts provided training based on training material previously developed within the same project that offered 20 police officers/staff a comprehensive overview of human rights standards and good practice applicable in their daily work. The workshop used interactive methodology and was based on case-studies and exercises that illustrated applicability of international human rights standards in local circumstances and situations familiar to the police officers.

The workshop was organized within the framework of the Pre-defined Project, “Strengthening the capacity of the pre-trial detention system to comply with the relevant international human rights instruments” financed under the Norway Grants Mechanism and implemented by the General Inspectorate of the Romanian Police, in partnership with the Council of Europe.
