Royal Canadian Mounted Police

24 November 2010 Kandahar, Afghanistan

 

Constable Lorant ‘Junior’ Hegedus (right), a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer with the Kandahar Provincial Reconstruction Team, discusses training the Canadian police provides to the Afghan National Police.

 

The Kandahar Provincial Reconstruction Team (PRT) is a bi-national, civilian and Canadian-led and is one of 27 international PRTs across Afghanistan helping the democratically-elected government of Afghanistan extend its authority and ability to govern, rebuild the nation, and provide services to its citizens.

 

Canada’s whole-of-government approach in Afghanistan reflects the three pillars of the Compact: security, governance and development. Canada supports work in these mutually reinforcing areas by drawing upon resources and expertise from across the federal government.
