Priority Areas 2027–2029 and Indicative Activity Plan
Background
The Nordic-Baltic Network of Policewomen (NBNP) brings together police officers and experts from the Nordic and Baltic countries with expertise in gender-responsive policing, domestic and sexual violence, prevention and victim-centred approaches. In 2027–2031, the bilateral initiative “Gender-Responsive Policing in Lithuania”, funded by the EEA and Norway Grants and implemented by the Lithuanian Police, the National Commissioner of the Icelandic Police and the Norwegian Ministry of Justice and Public Security, offers an opportunity to contribute this expertise.
