Territorial footprint
Organised criminality and terrorism are a threat to the sovereignty and stability of states. CIVIPOL has earned the trust of international sponsors and their partners through our acknowledged expertise in the fight against these phenomena, both transnational and local.

Fight against terrorism
In a globalised world, the threat to states and citizens has become more intense and complex. Taking advantage of French experience, CIVIPOL’s actions cover:
- support in the development and strengthening of antiterrorist legislation
- reinforcement of the capacity of internal security services
- police and judicial cooperation on national, regional and international levels

Whether the threat is accidental or intentional, CIVIPOL trains concerned institutions and personnel in the reduction of risk and in preparation for the management of crises involving chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or explosive hazards.

Fight against radicalisation and violent extremism
When these extremist ideologies take hold locally, the danger increases that threats will be carried out. The fight against radicalisation is an integral part of CIVIPOL’s service. CIVIPOL works with all concerned stakeholders: police, justice, prison authorities, central government, local authorities, religious authorities. CIVIPOL contributes to increasing resistance to extremist views, preventing recruitment in prisons and building alternatives to terrorist propaganda. More than simply fighting terrorist actions, it also involves persuading individuals to renounce their violent ways.

Fight against illegal trafficking and organised crime
Organised crime deprives states of a part of their prerogatives and threatens their stability through: economic losses (massive fiscal fraud, illegal imports, damage to business confidence, etc), deterioration to the rule of law; increased insecurity, money laundering, funding of criminal and terrorist activities.
CIVIPOL calls on the expertise of the French Ministry of the Interior in the fight against trafficking (of humans, drugs or weapons) in order to:
- build cooperation at national, regional and international levels
- reinforce or create ad hoc legislation
- structure the capacity of the internal security services.
