The association aims at promoting an innovative and active reflection on the forms of police co-operation, and to value their model of organisation and structures abroad.

The two major stakes of the association are:

• the development of the capacity to be recognized, at the level of European authorities, as a forum and a structure of separate police co-operation, capable of leading concrete actions;

• the will to pursue works begun with the European members of the FIEP, concerning the definition and establishement of an European policeforce , to operate in a context of regional crisis in Europe. This reflection perfectly comes within the framework of the European policy on security and defence ( PESD), of which outlines are currently in the process of definition. FIEP countries wich are not members of the EU are associated to works in the perspective of additional contributions.
