UNICRI


Crime is a common concern both for governments and citizens across the globe. As crime becomes increasingly internationalized, new forms of crime emerge and organized crime spreads, national responses and international cooperation in the fields of crime prevention and criminal justice must work alongside one another.
UNICRI- United Nations Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute supports governments and the international community at large in tackling the threats of crime to social peace, development and political stability.

UNICRI is a United Nations entity established in 1967 to assist intergovernmental, governmental and non-governmental organizations in formulating and implementing improved policies in the field of crime prevention and criminal justice. UNICRI' s goals are:
- to advance understanding of crime-related problems
- to foster just and efficient criminal justice systems
- to support the respect of international instruments and other standards
- to facilitate international law enforcement cooperation and judicial assistance.

UNICRI is governed by a Board of Trustees composed of eminent experts. The staff cover a wide range of expertise in the management of research, training, technical cooperation and documentation and are supported by highly qualified consultants selected according to project requirements.
