Joint programme for the support of human security in Honduras
Duration: August 2006– February 2010
Budget: US$2,569,848
Implementing Agencies: UNDP, UNICEF, FAO, UNHCR, PAHO, UNFPA
The programme contributed to preventing and reducing the levels of violence in Comayagua, Choluteca and Juticalpa municipalities. Youth who represented the greatest number of both offenders and victims were particularly vulnerable to the growing rise in criminality and gang-related violence. The programme exemplified the added value of a participatory, context-specific and targeted human security approach to crime prevention.
