Mapping exercise: alternative measures in the Caribbean region

🌍 Discover our new study: Mapping Exercise – Alternative Measures in the Caribbean Region 📘

Prison overcrowding continues to pose a significant challenge across the Caribbean, placing considerable strain on justice institutions and undermining rehabilitation and reintegration efforts. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of how alternative measures—such as probation, community service, and electronic monitoring—can help relieve pressure on penitentiary systems while contributing to more effective and sustainable justice outcomes. ⚖️

The study’s central purpose is to chart the current landscape of alternative measures throughout the Caribbean region. By examining their use, availability, and the level of institutional support, this mapping exercise seeks to identify opportunities for reform, strengthen regional cooperation, and guide future technical assistance under EL PACCTO 2.0. 🤝🌐✨
