Líderes para la gestión en seguridad ciudadana y justicia from edX

Las altas tasas de crimen y violencia son dos de los principales problemas que afectan a los ciudadanos de América Latina y el Caribe, por lo cual las políticas públicas de seguridad ciudadana y justicia se encuentran priorizadas en las agendas de los gobiernos de la región. Para mejorar la efectividad de estas políticas es imprescindible contar con una sociedad civil informada que vele porque los derechos sociales se respeten y el Estado de derecho se cumpla bajo un régimen de gobernanza democrática. De ahí la importancia de poner a disposición del público en general este material que permite conocer tanto los conceptos teóricos como lo que actualmente se está haciendo en la práctica en cuanto a la implementación de políticas de seguridad ciudadana y justicia en la región.

En particular, el curso provee conocimiento aplicado y herramientas técnicas para el diseño, implementación y evaluación de programas dirigidos a fortalecer los diferentes eslabones que componen el sistema de justicia criminal: la prevención del crimen y la violencia; la disuasión del crimen; el control del delito y el cumplimiento de la ley; la judicialización del delito, y la reinserción social de los privados de libertad, que contribuyan a fortalecer el Estado de derecho de los países en la región.

Se espera que este curso permita crear conciencia entre los funcionarios públicos, autoridades, académicos, periodistas, sociedad civil y todo el público interesado en temas de seguridad ciudadana y justicia en América Latina y el Caribe, sobre la naturaleza intersectorial de las políticas que buscan mejorar los servicios de prevención social de la violencia, policía, fiscalías y prisiones.

El curso fue diseñado conjuntamente por parte del BID y el consorcio de universidades de Chile, John Jay College of Criminal Justice de la Ciudad de Nueva York y FADISMA en Brasil.
