The United Nations Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute (UNICRI) has unveiled its newly redesigned website, aimed at enhancing accessibility to vital resources on crime prevention and justice reform. Located at https://unicri.it, the site serves as a hub for sharing research findings, policy recommendations, and collaboration opportunities with member states, NGOs, and academia.
The redesigned platform features an intuitive interface, enabling users to navigate through an extensive database of publications, projects, and training programs focused on areas such as organized crime, terrorism, and cybersecurity. UNICRI’s focus on evidence-based approaches underscores its commitment to addressing contemporary crime challenges and enhancing international cooperation.
As UNICRI works to establish itself as a leader in crime research, it faces competition from several organizations. Notably, the Institute for Security Studies (ISS) provides comprehensive research on crime and security in Africa, while the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) offers in-depth analyses on global conflicts and security trends.
Moreover, other entities, such as the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), contribute valuable insights into criminal activity and policy responses. These organizations, like UNICRI, aim to inform global leaders and policymakers, creating an ongoing discourse on effective strategies to combat crime and ensure justice around the world.
