Fiji Police Commissioner Rusiate Tudravu is joining police leaders from around the world at the fifth United Nations Chiefs of Police Summit (UNCOPS 2026) in New York, where global discussions are focused on strengthening international peace, security and the future of policing.
The two-day summit, which began on Monday, brings together ministers, police commissioners and senior representatives of regional and professional policing organisations at the United Nations Headquarters.
Pacific police leaders are playing an active role in the discussions, sharing policing approaches shaped by partnership, resilience and regional cooperation while contributing to conversations on the security challenges affecting the Pacific.
The summit provides a platform for police executives and United Nations leadership to discuss how national police services and United Nations policing can work together to address current and emerging global security threats.
For more than six decades, United Nations Police (UNPOL) has supported countries and communities affected by conflict through peacekeeping operations, helping strengthen policing institutions and promote sustainable peace.
The summit concludes today, with discussions expected to reinforce international cooperation in policing and peacekeeping efforts worldwide.
