With fifteen years of experience, the Safer Cities programme has implemented effective urban safety programmes in 53 cities and towns in 24 countries around the world. The approach embraces a more holistic and participatory solution to reduce or prevent crime and violence. It supports cities and towns in adopting city-wide urban safety strategies and action
plans, building on socially inclusive and participatory approaches that contribute to a safer and just city for all.
