Law enforcement capacity building in Argentina and Uruguay

Overview

Law enforcement agencies in Argentina and Uruguay have undertaken various initiatives to enhance operational capacity and community relations.

In Argentina, efforts have focused on training and equipment. In Hurlingham, the Community Prevention Corps (CPC) began training approximately 175 agents in the “rational and progressive use of force,” utilizing non-lethal weapons such as Byrna pistols and tonfa batons.

In Entre Ríos, the provincial government has invested approximately 400 million pesos to strengthen the Entre Ríos Police. This investment provides forces with refurbished vehicles—including those previously seized from criminal organizations—high-generation rifles, low-lethality pistols, and specialized assault gear to combat organized narcotics trafficking, rural crime, and violent crime.

In Uruguay, activities have centered on community engagement and personnel recognition. In Paysandú, the Problem-Oriented Community Police (PCOP) participated in local events, such as the Spring Parade and Diversity Fair, to distribute information on emergency services and promote community coexistence. Additionally, in Río Negro, the Police Headquarters held ceremonies to recognize officers from various departments, including Scientific Police and Human Resources, for outstanding performance.
