A workshop on ‘Security Command in Accordance with Human Rights Principles’ began on Wednesday. A number of officers from the Ministry of the Interior (MoI) and the Lekhwiya Force are participating in the workshop.
The workshop has been organised by the Security Committee of the Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy (SC) as part of its plans to qualify national cadres to ensure the security of the 2022 FIFA World Cup being hosted by Qatar.
The two-day workshop, delivered by Frederick Cox, security training advisor at the Training and Qualifying Unit of the Security Committee, focuses on a number of topics related to human rights and the requirements of FIFA in this context, the concept of security command under national and international charters as well as legislation and protocols of human rights, the legal frameworks that protect these rights, and the extent to which they affect the work of the police.
Captain Majid al Qahtani, who oversees the workshop, said the workshop comes within the framework of preparations for the 2022 World Cup, explaining that the Training and Qualifying Unit of the Security Committee seeks through a variety of workshops to raise the level of performance of officers involved in the security aspect of the World Cup. The programme aims to take them to top levels in terms of performance and handling of events, with a commitment to the implementation of human rights provisions in general and the recommendations of FIFA in particular, he said.
He noted that the workshop, which is part of the Continuous Development Program (CPD), addresses, in addition to human rights areas, safety and security aspects, risk assessment and security coverage before, during and after the event. This is in addition to dealing with the tactical options that the police can use to achieve security and safety of the tournament, implementation of their plans, principles of decision-making and assessment of potential risks, among other topics.
