Police Technical Cooperation and Civil Protection fall within the
framework of the Portuguese Cooperation Strategy 2030 (ECP2030) and contribute
to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030
Agenda, always in alignment with the priorities established by the authorities
of the beneficiary countries. Strengthening human security is a cross-cutting
priority, requiring broad participation from various stakeholders and ensuring
an integrated, coherent, and sustainable approach. Portuguese Cooperation
primarily focuses on the Member States of the Community of Portuguese Language
Countries (CPLP), taking into account historical ties and the evolving
international landscape in areas such as security, migration, and border
control.
Within the scope of security and internal administration, the Police
Technical Cooperation and Civil Protection Programs (PCTPPC) are implemented
annually. These programs are co-financed by entities under the Ministry of
Internal Administration and by Camões – Institute for Cooperation and Language,
I.P., the body responsible for coordinating Portuguese Cooperation. The
programs are part of the multiannual Strategic Cooperation Programs (PEC). The
investments made under the PCTPPC aim to strengthen the technical and
operational capacities of counterpart entities in partner countries, promoting
the principles of good governance, the rule of law, and the protection of human
rights—primarily through capacity-building initiatives, technical advisory
services, and the donation of equipment and materials.
