Compendium Of Civil Society Contributions To The Preparations For The 15th UN Crime Congress
The compendium of recommendations, created through a survey of more than 300 NGOs and other stakeholders, has provided the international community with a broad and diverse range of inputs and best practice examples upon which to draw as the 15th UN Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice is prepared. The Alliance of NGOs on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice, as the umbrella body for civil society engagement at the Congress, looks forward to taking forward these insights to support the development of the inputs and outcomes of the Congress.
Our Vision

The Alliance brings together a broad network of civil society organizations contributing to the achievement of security and justice for all. It ensures that civil society are recognized and heard in advancing the crime prevention and criminal justice agenda and in designing, implementing and measuring results of relevant policies everywhere. Under the umbrella of the Alliance, cooperation among its members will be strengthened, reinforcing the expertise and vision of each of the members to add value and support the work of relevant international organizations, especially UNODC. The Alliance encourages its members in playing a key role towards the achievement of the SDGs, and in particular Goal 16 to “Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels.”
