This network dialogue meeting took place to contribute to the development of bespoke standards in relation to places of worship. This activity included consideration by working groups of whether standards or best practice guidance is required specifically for ensuring security by design for religious sites, whether planning for new construction, renovations, or security upgrades of existing facilities. This activity explored aspects such as:

1. The architecture, windows, structure, landscaping, perimeter, entrances/exits and all other physical elements.

2. Surveillance, the control room, access control, screening equipment, alarm, detection systems, information security, and security related technology.

3. Sensitive design principles for religious sites to balance the need to provide a secure environment while creating the atmosphere of self-reflection that manifests from the form, space, scale, materiality, and light, in spiritual spaces.
