Handbook of Planning and Action for Crime Prevention in Southern Africa and the Caribbean Regions

This handbook is a reference for those who intent to introduce practices in order to reduce and prevent crime. It uses experience from the developing word, especially from the Caribbean and Southern Africa and takes into account the work that has been done on the South-South exchange programme since 2004. It is a very useful tool to know why crime takes place, what kind of programme for crime prevention works depending on the context, what information is needed as well as what are the ways to build capacity for effective crime prevention.
