Director Brown presented an overview of the history of PICP, one of the oldest regional bodies in the Pacific. Over the past 50 years, the PICP has worked continuously to build safer and more secure communities by improving policing.
PICP has 22 members, and each state’s Commissioner, Chief or Director of Police represents the membership. For the Solomon Islands, Commissioner Mostyn Mangau is the PICP representative.
DI Tagini is the first female officer from the RSIPF to be seconded to the PICP Secretariat, and over the next six months will be undertaking various facets of project management and assisting with the management of the PICP Women’s Advisory Network (WAN); particularly the WAN’s 20th anniversary celebrations later this year.
DI Tagini appreciates the Secondment, as she will be acquiring valuable skills and knowledge that she will take back with her to RSIPF.
His Excellency the High Commissioner congratulated DI Tagini, and encouraged her to make the most of her secondment.
DI Tagini expressed that it was an honour for her to be selected out of the RSIPF for the secondment, and will do her best to support the Secretariat’s work over the next six months.
