“We must be prepared to prevent attacks and this is why we train”
The mayor of Logroño, Pablo Hermoso de Mendoza, visited the Rural Action Unit and the Guardia Civil’s Experiences for Special Forces Facility located in that city in La Rioja.

During the visit, the director of CT Public Spaces, Colonel Javier Hernández Marco, had the opportunity to present the project, funded by European Union, which FIIAPP manages with Guardia Civil as an implementing partner. CT Public Spaces began its activities in early 2020 and will be implementing actions until January 2023 with the main aim of preventing and reducing terrorist attacks and their effects in public spaces in Ghana, Kenya and Senegal, through the exchange of experiences with members of the security forces there.

In addition to the Rural Action Unit, the mayor has been able to visit the Experiences for Special Forces facilities, a 32-hectare industrial estate, where both national and international police units carry out all kinds of specialised training. Its location in Logroño makes the city the ideal place to host the development of a large number of activities of the CT Public Spaces project. In November 2020, a dozen members of the Senegalese Gendarmerie and National Police went there to attend tactical training for precision shooters, intervention dog guides and explosive detection guides.
