Network for Police Monitoring (Netpol)

Description

The Network for Police Monitoring (Netpol) monitors public order, protest and street policing and challenges policing that it considers excessive, discriminatory or a threat to civil rights. It operates as a network of activists, campaigners, lawyers and researchers, acting as a forum for sharing knowledge and expertise. Through campaigning, awareness-building and the production of reports and resources, it challenges policing strategies it regards as damaging, and works with community and activist groups that monitor policing in particular communities or deploy legal observers at protests.
