The Community Policing model is an approach to public safety that focuses on collaboration between police and the community. This model has been implemented in many EU countries, and the objective of this study is to analyze their experience. The study used the formal-legal method, the comparative-legal method, the content analysis method and statistical observation. As a result of the research carried out, the main tools to introduce the concept of Community Policing in the United Kingdom, Netherlands, Denmark and France were characterized. It was established that these tools aim to engage the public in collaboration, education and instruction of law enforcement personnel, providing guidance and consultation to citizens, as well as analysis and deterrence of criminal activities. Various forms of police interaction with the public in the United Kingdom are examined and the official website of the country's police service is characterized as a good example of an electronic platform for interaction with citizens. The results of the study can be applied by law enforcement agencies to optimize the implementation of the Community Policing concept, taking into account international experience. Future research may highlight the specific forms of, in particular, the Neighborhood Watch Network and the Home Watch Network.
