Security and Citizenship
The ICOS Security and Citizenship programme combines innovative research and policy analysis to
promote pragmatic responses to today's most pressing social challenges. ICOS aims to promote the
values of citizenship and empowerment in communities at the grassroots level: processes of social
transformation are achieved through multi-sector policy initiatives and joint responsibility. ICOS
supports communities to become safer, paving the way for social and economic development. The
ICOS Centre of Excellence on Security and Citizenship is based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

ICOS has brought together a panel of leading public security consultants combining expertise from policy, academic and operational fields in Brazil and across the globe. Chaired by the law enforcement officer and former Secretary General of Interpol (the International Criminal Police Organisation), Mr. Raymond Kendall, the Council serves as an international task team to address public security challenges.
The Scientific Council draws on ICOS’s diverse portfolio covering insurgency and public security policy and unique research perspective that provides local, national and international understanding. It offers advice and analysis to public security agencies, governmental bodies and multilateral policymaking organisations.
