Efus – Activities Report – 2013

EDITORIAL

Encouraging discussions between elected officials and civil society was the common thread running through our work this year. It is one of the key principles of the Manifesto of Aubervilliers and Saint-Denis, as well as one of the themes addressed by the European Union as part of the European Year of Citizens. Local authorities in the Efus network strongly believe that citizen participation is an effective way to tackle the growing distrust in Europe’s policies. Bringing together institutions and citizens must enable the latter to influence their own living environment, security and quality of the city, whilst cities must fully benefit from the contributions made by civil society. Efus strives to support and improve how its members promote citizen participation in local security policies. We therefore worked with the cities in the network to organise debate days with civil society, local elected officials and practitioners; these events took place throughout the year and were based on the Manifesto of Aubervilliers and Saint-Denis. This initiative was called “Sharing the Manifesto” and in total over 1,000 people attended these events - the same number that attended the conference in 2012. The variety of themes covered at these meetings reflects the breadth and scope of the field of prevention. Similarly, the range of cities that hosted these meetings demonstrates the dynamic nature of our network and its commitment to our principles, which Efus promotes and upholds in European institutions. These debates set many things in motion, including a thought process on the role of citizens in security policies, and they also strengthened our collective ability to mobilise civil society on the theme of crime prevention. The year 2013 was also full of projects and accomplishments that benefit the whole network and not just the cities that participate in them. We concluded projects on binge drinking among young people in public spaces, the creation of a European Master’s degree in urban security, addiction prevention within Roma and Sinti communities, and violence committed by groups of young people in public spaces. We also launched new projects on police-population understanding, diagnostic methodologies and security in touristic cities. We also continued working on the way cities use surveillance technologies and started work on the theme of radicalisation. On the international level, Efus has continued its technical assistance work with institutions and local authorities in Latin America, through the project Eurosocial, and in Africa (Ivory Coast, Senegal), supporting integrated prevention policies and the role of local authorities. All these actions are fully consistent with Efus’ strategic plan 2013-2016, which was drawn up in 2013 in collaboration with the Executive Committee; this plan will guide our work over the next few years. Efus also worked on improving various aspects of its governance and received the label Ideas for its efforts, which guarantees the quality of its governance and of its financial and operational management.

Efus – Activities Report – 2013

The extent and diversity of our work reflects the extent and diversity of our network. But it also reveals what unites European cities: the fundamental principals that are at the very core of our democracies. As citizens are to some extent expressing their disenchantment, the European Forum intends to continue to fulfil its mission to promote these principles within all our institutions, and our European ones in particular. Elizabeth Johnston Executive Director

Efus – Activities Report – 2013

FORMULATING AND IMPLEMENTING THE STRATEGIC PLAN 2013-2016 As Europe and European cities are currently experiencing major transformations and face many political, economic and social unknowns, and as the European Forum celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2013, it seemed particularly appropriate to look into the future of the association by capitalising its achievements, solidifying its foundations and mapping out the prospects for its future actions. The creation of a strategic plan is an important stage which involves formalising several aspects that already exist as well as looking forward into the medium- and long-term future. This document will enable the project to be shared with all the members and the technical staff, to facilitate their involvement and allow more parties to become involved. Furthermore, this written strategy will be useful in our communication with our external partners. We have been working together with our pro-bono consultants, IDEAS1, on an analysis of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats that Efus is facing. We have had discussions with members of the Executive Committee, individually and collectively, particularly at the meeting in October 2012. The content of the Strategic Plan was reviewed at the Executive Committee meeting at the end of March 2013, and presented at the Efus General Assembly in June 2013.

VISION Efus aims to be a reference platform on the theme of prevention and security in European cities, as well as a source of resources and support for elected representatives and their teams.

VALUES Support European cities in their local actions. Work to strengthen the role of prevention in security policies. Promote the local level within national and international bodies.

STRATEGIC APPROACHES This strategy is based on five key approaches that will guide Efus’ actions over the next three years. Approach 1: Developing the collective intelligence generated by local authorities and promoting Efus’ principles.

1 Ideas is a French non-profit association that analyses the quality of charities and foundations that are looking for sponsorship. The label delivered by Ideas is a guarantee for donors that the funds they contribute will be used ethically and efficiently.

Efus – Activities Report – 2013

Approach 2: Supporting the action of cities with tools and methodologiesPromoting the implementation of Efus’ knowledge in cities. Approach 3: Promoting a collective European project, created with local elected officials and citizens. Approach 4: Positioning European cities in a process of exchange and sharing with other regions of the world. Approach 5: Consolidating and developing the Forum’s network.

RESOLUTIONS OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE During the General Assembly, the Executive Committee adopted a resolution stating that statistical data on crime must be dissociated from data on the performance of services and instead it should be associated with the degree of satisfaction of the population. The FFSU Executive Committee meeting adopted other resolutions in 2013: ● “For an integrated anti-violence strategy” based on the support mission carried out by the FFSU in Marseille ● “For the trial of supervised drug consumption rooms” ● “For local elected officials’ involvement in combating violence against women”, which must be considered as a public security issue Efus – Activities Report – 2013

One of the aims is to set up a network of cities. The project aims more generally to promote health and reduce high risk behaviour in the party scene; it is divided into operational objectives (exchange of good practices, visits from experts, promotion of nightlife charters). The FFSU is continuing to work with the city of Paris on the programme "Fêtez clairs" (“Party while being aware!”). The Forum launched a working group on “Local authorities and Justice” which is composed of approximately 30 cities, in order to draw up guidelines for relations between the city and the justice system.

OTHER ACTIVITIES Training and support to cities The FFSU is associated with the University of Versailles-Saint-Quentin en Yvelines to offer a University diploma in "Security and Urban Life" aimed at urban security professionals who wish to acquire a high level of expertise in security and crime prevention policies.

Efus is leading this project. Objectives The objective of this project is to help cities improve their tourism policy by increasing their level of security. The activities undertaken during this project will lead to the drafting of guidelines on what constitutes a safe tourism policy, good practices that will be helpful for the implementation of such a policy and evaluation indicators. Furthermore, the project will allow partner cities to build and strengthen local partnerships, including public-private ones, so as to implement their tourism policy. Partners Seven European cities and an association: Alba (Italy), Barcelona (Spain), Brasov (Romania), Brussels (Prevention service, Bravvo, Belgium), Munich (Germany), Rome (Italy), Saint-Denis (France) and the Portuguese Association for Victim Support APAV. Activities The first phase of the project took place between January and June 2013; it consisted of identifying the indicators of a safe local tourism policy, as well as planning and implementing a local tourism safety audit in each of the partner cities based on the aforementioned indicators. An initial coordination meeting was held on 26-27 June 2013 in Cascais (Portugal). A second implementation phase began in June 2013 and continues until September 2014. The partner cities began the process that will lead them to carry out a “security and tourism” audit that will provide an accurate representation of the problems of incivility, crime and victimisation linked to tourism in their city, to identify the advantages of and the resources for prevention, and to identify the most pressing issues. Most of the partners have set up work groups linking prevention services with tourism stakeholders, which often include the private sector, to coordinate their actions and to focus on the details of the audit. This second implementation phase also includes field visits in the cities. Coordination for Efus Mark Burton-Page and Alberto Dotta Efus – Activities Report – 2013

III Sharing the Manifesto Initiative

Efus – Activities Report – 2013

Following on from the 2012 conference on “The Future of Prevention” and the publication of the Manifesto of Aubervilliers and Saint-Denis “Security, Democracy and Cities”, Efus launched the “Sharing the Manifesto” initiative. This initiative aims to foster a dialogue about security issues between local and European authorities, civil society and other stakeholders in the urban sector. This initiative received funding from the EU programme “Europe for Citizens”. Various types of events – debates, conferences, study days – have been organised with and by local European authorities that are members of Efus, with citizens and institutions. In 2013 around twenty events took place. Nine of these events were Manifesto Days that were attended by over 1000 people.

As part of its strategy, Efus decided to invest in press relations in 2013 in order to increase its visibility and raise its profile as a point of reference on the themes Efus – Activities Report – 2013

relating to urban security throughout Europe. To this end, Efus worked with a Brussels-based press agency. In total, Efus was the subject of 40 articles and radio or TV reports in seven countries (Germany, Belgium, Croatia, France, Italy, Poland and Portugal) and these were made primarily when Efus organised an event in 2013. These reports are available on our website in the section “Press Room”. Since 2011 the number of visitors to the Efus website each month has been rising steadily and the number of pages visited is also increasing. In 2013, Efus published over 140 articles relating to its activities, network news, ongoing programmes, and practice sheets. The website has 1,730 articles, including some 350 practice sheets, which are only available for Efus members.

MANAGEMENT

Efus received the Ideas Label in recognition of the quality of its governance and financial and operational management. This label was awarded by an independent committee following a far-reaching review of Efus’ activities and work process and the support it was given to improve internal practices, which began in 2012. After having worked to improve several aspects of its governance, the Efus team called an external auditor who audited the structure and presented its conclusions to Ideas. In December 2013, Bertrand Binctin, Deputy Mayor of Le Havre and member of the Executive Committee, represented the EC during a formal presentation of Efus at the Label Committee of Ideas, together with Elizabeth Johnston. Ideas is a French non-profit association, which assesses the quality of associations and foundations that are looking for sponsors. The label they deliver is a guarantee for financiers that the funds they contribute will be used in an ethical and efficient manner. In addition to this support that enabled Efus to formalise its existing procedures and to establish new ones, the Ideas Label will be used to facilitate the links between Efus and its private donors for the co-funding of certain projects.
