Criminal Justice Collaboration and Partnership Program

archived

The goal of the Criminal Justice Collaboration and Partnership Program (CJ-CAP) is to provide an opportunity for police, investigators, judges, prosecutors, criminal defense attorneys, court administrators, civil society actors, correctional officers, relevant Ministry of Justice or Interior officials, and other criminal justice sector representatives from host-country nations to produce sustainable, long-term change within their institutions and criminal justice systems through a coordinated and integrated approach to tackling cross-sectoral criminal justice problems. This program centers on potential thematic areas designed at breaking down silos and encouraging cooperation between law enforcement (police and investigators), justice (judges, prosecutors, criminal defense attorneys, and administrators), corrections officials, and civil society or relevant ministry officials, as appropriate, in the criminal justice system with an aim to develop innovative solutions to address fixable criminal justice problem areas.
