Webinar 73/2016 Ensuring rights of victims of crime

The aim of this webinar is to discuss how law enforcement and victim support services can interact and cooperate to provide essential help to victims of crime at the earliest stage possible. This includes police providing victims with information about - and referring them to - support services, data protection issues, victims being accompanied to the police by staff of support services, and the exchange of views on risks of repeated victimisation between support services and the police. The webinar will highlight ways for law enforcement and victim support services to work together by exchanging practices in this field, with the aim of building victims’ trust and encouraging reporting.
