European Confederation of Police

Mission & Goals

The European Confederation of Police (EuroCOP) is the umbrella organisation for police unions and staff organisations in Europe. Based in Luxembourg, we represent the interests of police officers across the whole of the European landscape. EuroCOP is tackling issues from police cooperation across borders to a safer working environment for police officers on the street. We are determined to contribute to European policy debates and provide added value by giving a practitioners perspective. EuroCOP was established in November 2002, and is an independent, non-profit and secular organisation and has no affiliation with any government or political party. Financed through member contributions, EuroCOP is open to any organisation representing police officers in member countries of the European Union or the Council of Europe. EuroCOP is the only Police representative body that are members of the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC) and the European Trade Union Federation (ETUF).
