The training teams formed of law enforcement and prison professionals held two online co-ordination meetings with the project team on 21 April and 24 April 2020 to continue drafting manuals for law enforcement agencies and interagency co-operation in the treatment of persons deprived of liberty in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Moreover, the Working group comprising prison professionals and local consultants had an online co-ordination meeting with the project team on 24 April 2020 to discuss the progress made regarding the introduction of Information Technology in entity prisons, the development of prison software and the purchase of hardware equipment for Integrated Prison management system in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

These activities are organised within the joint EU/Council of Europe programme “Horizontal Facility for the Western Balkans and Turkey II” and its action on "Strengthening human rights treatment of detained persons based on European standards and best practices in Bosnia and Herzegovina", implemented by the Council of Europe. All action activities are currently taking place in electronic form.
