OBJECTIVE

To develop and launch a Regional System of Standardized Citizen Security and Coexistence Indicators to make it possible to measure, monitor, and compare regional phenomena linked to citizen security, thus enhancing the capacity of decision-makers in Andean and Central American countries to formulate, implement, and evaluate public policies on citizen security.

SCOPE OF THE PROPOSAL

To reduce the number of indicators used to describe crime and violence incidents.

To build consensus among participating countries on ways of mediating territorial and sectoral problems.
