The Private Sector at the World Urban Forum 5 |
|
"For the first time in a World Urban Forum, three main events were dedicated or closely related to the Business Sector’s participation and commitment to sustainable urban development: a Business Caucus, a Business Roundtable and the launch of the World Urban Campaign.
A large number of representatives from the industry and private sector attended the events, with high-level key speakers exposing their views and debating on urbanization challenges.
The WUF5 marks the beginning of a new era in terms of public-private partnerships towards addressing urban sustainable development and global challenges.
UN-HABITAT Executive Director, Dr Anna Tibaijuka, Hilary Clinton, US Secretary of States, in her video statement at the closing ceremony, and other key speakers, referred to public-private partnerships as a priority to face the urban challenges and the world’s sustainable development. Ms. Clinton also pointed out to the need for strengthening governance and putting in place innovative financing tools for local authorities."

Article on Cities and Violence (CEPAL), by Laura Petrella and Franz Vanderschueren |
|
La delincuencia se ha constituido en un serio problema, en los últimos 20 años, en la mayoría de las ciudades de los países desarrollados y en las áreas urbanas de los países en desarrollo que, en muchos casos, han experimentado también un fuerte aumento demográfico. Además, la delincuencia se sitúa en un contexto de globalización del crimen organizado y del tráfico y consumo de drogas.

Young offenders and youth-at-risk : overview of current international approches, Ahmed Othmani |
|
Penal Reform International works on Prison and Penal Reform around the world. A great deal of our work concerns juveniles and juvenile justice. PRI believes that a proper administration of juvenile justice cannot be achieved without a strong education and welfare system. Helping young people in conflict with the law to become law abiding adult citizens is much more the job of parents, teachers, social workers and psychologists than it is of police, courts and prisons. PRI is of the opinion that juvenile offending should be dealt with as far as possible from the formal criminal justice and penal system.

Victimisation Surveys: A Methodology Paper(draft) |
|
Construire une culture de la prévention demande du temps et consiste avant tout à créer un triple consensus : tout d'abord il faut persuader les habitants de la possibilité de limiter les effets de la criminalité et réduire ou déraciner ses causes à travers une politique de prévention. Ensuite il faut vaincre chez les habitants le sentiment d'insécurité qui les paralyse, les pousse à faire appel à la seule répression, à se résigner devant la fatalité de la criminalité ou à prendre en main leur propre justice en violant souvent les droits de l'homme. Enfin il faut faire d'eux des acteurs organisés de la lutte contre les causes et les effets de la criminalité sous toutes ses formes.
