Lacedonia's municipal theatre was the venue for the third study day devoted to Local Police training, an event reported retrospectively on 10 October 2026 after its staging on 9 October.
The day, titled "La Polizia Locale oggi: formazione Omnibus," brought officers and specialists together for a morning programme of technical sessions on public administration, operational procedure, environmental protection, privacy and video surveillance.
What took place
The 2026 event was the third study day focused on local-police training and was held at Lacedonia's municipal theatre.
According to the pre-event announcement, the programme was scheduled for 9 October 2026 at 09:00 at the Teatro Comunale in Rione M. Bianchi, and was scheduled to end at 13:30 after a question-time session. Participation was free, with an attendance certificate issued to participants.
The primary report, published on 10 October 2026, describes the event after it took place. The related announcement was published before the event.
The programme: four specialist themes
The programme addressed offences against public administration, operational and judicial-police procedures, environmental protection and privacy, and video surveillance.
The retrospective report specifies three practical strands within that programme: public-administration offences, operational procedures for non-collaborative individuals, and municipal video-surveillance obligations concerning illegal dumping.
The programme opened with institutional greetings from Lacedonia's mayor Antonio Di Conza and included moderation by Pasquale Ricciardella, commander of the Provincial Police of Potenza.
For readers following municipal enforcement in Campania, the combination is notable: the agenda linked criminal and administrative law, frontline operational practice, and the privacy and technical rules that govern municipal cameras used against illegal dumping.
Organisers and venue
The event was promoted by the International Police Association's local "Irpinia-Sannio" committee with the patronage of the Municipality of Lacedonia.
The venue was the Teatro comunale di Lacedonia, identified in the announcement as the Teatro Comunale in Rione M. Bianchi. No official Municipality of Lacedonia event page or programme document was located in the research, and the sources do not provide a precise attendance figure.
A town with an established training tradition
Lacedonia has hosted police-training meetings before. A separate 2025 seminar in Lacedonia attracted delegations from nearby parts of Puglia and Basilicata, indicating regional interest in the town's police-training events.
The Lacedonia study days have been described as a long-running series, with the 2025 article identifying that edition as the 25th seminar.
The relationship between the "III Giornata di studio" reported for 2026 and the long-running series described as the 25th edition in 2025 is not explained by the acquired sources. The numbering may reflect a new cycle or organising format, but the sources do not clarify the point.
