Australian Federal Police (AFP)
The AFP's police cooperation objectives in Nauru align with
shared priorities in both Nauru and the Pacific region.
The Nauru-Australia Policing Partnership (N-APP) reflects the
current need for the AFP to support the NPF to prioritise its
training capability, identified by the Minister for Police and the
NPF Commissioner as a key outcome.
The broad 10-year goal of the Partnership is that the Nauru
Police Force is a professional, effective and trusted
community-based police service.
To this point, the AFP has directed financial resources and
exclusively allocated the AFP Operations Advisor to the Learning
and Development Division, to assist to evaluate capability, address
issues and build learning materials, governance, and infrastructure
to support the KPIs as set out in the NPF Strategic Plan. This
includes virtual learning capability necessitated by the global
pandemic.
The next goal is for AFP Operations Advisor to move focus to
Frontline Operations, where the results of professional development
training can be assessed and supported in an operational capacity,
developing capability further and making recommendations where
knowledge gaps are identified.
