8. The Goals of Police Development
Enhance ANP capabilities, starting with the Uniformed Police (AUP);
Transform the AUP into a service loyal to the Afghan people and Afghan national interests;
Build a “prosecutor-driven justice system” and the Rule of Law (ROL);
Strengthen the AUP linkage to provincial, regional, and national leaders and staff;
Develop MoI capabilities by mentoring their leadership of this initiative;
Enable the IRoA and MoI to project success by improving the lives of Afghan citizens at the local level.
FDD was the first Ntl program directed at reforming, refitting and training the entire police force

9. Where Is Police Mentoring Needed?
6 Regions
34 Provinces
365 Districts
The initial assessment by NATO was to develop key military areas for the first several rounds
Little thought was given to what police priorities were
Focus was along `the ring road` and areas of population
Roughly 80 key districts and 40 districts of interest were designated for FDD
Local policing functions
under a national (MoI)
command structure.
Security considerations require some combat capability.

28. Mentoring Afghans Learn the language Build the relationship slowly
Understand where they come from
Don’t make it all about work
Two ears one mouth
Share your ideas but ask for theirs first
Who else is mentoring and what are their priorities
Find the history of why
Beware the bobble head and Afghan promises
Afghan time
Your mission is not theirs
Learning mechanisms
Capacity development vrs capacity replacement.

Give a man a fish, feed him for a day
Teach a man to fish, feed him for life

30. Western vs Afghan ideas of Institutions
National versus Local
State versus family and tribe
Family, tribe, society, nation
Afghans view the world much differently than westerners
Kabul views are different than those in various provinces
HQ views much different than PHQ and districts
Priorities are based on more basic needs

31. Mentoring at MOI HQ Often mentors out number the Afghans
More common is each Afghan may have up to 4 mentors
Not all mentors have the skills needed to mentor at the level they are at.

32. Afghanistan National Police – End State
A respected and professional Police Force, whose members are proud and dedicated to service to the Afghan nation and its people, and whose leaders have the courage to champion change.
