The ICPC had the privileged opportunity to take part in the First Inter-American Conference of Crime Observatories and Analysis Centres, hosted online from November 21 to 22, 2023.
Organized by the Department of Public Security of the Organization of American States (DPS/OAS) and the Latin American Institute for Security and Democracy, and attended by almost 150 participants, stakeholders from research organizations and political and legal institutions discussed new methodologies, tools and public policies to combat the rise in insecurity and all forms of crime in the Americas.
It was in this context that Oscar Figueroa, strategic consultant for Latin America at the ICPC, moderated the discussion on the impact of different tools used in the application of geospatial analysis in the prevention of violence and crime.
This participation enabled the ICPC to meet organizations involved in violence prevention and also to reaffirm its mission to fight crime by learning more about the different tools and practices used internationally.
Thank you for the invitation.
