(March 1999) 2 This Compendium of promising practices has been developed by the International Centre for Criminal Law Reform and Criminal Justice Policy, with the financial support of the Government of Canada. It was produced in collaboration with the Centre for International Crime Prevention (CICP/ODCCP), the European Institute for Crime Prevention and Control Affiliated with the United Nations (HEUNI), and the United Nations Latin American Institute for the Prevention of Crime and the Treatment of Offenders (ILANUD). The Compendium is designed as a companion instrument to a Resource Manual. Both instruments support the implementation of the Model Strategies and Practical Measures on the Elimination of Violence Against Women in the Field of Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in December 1997 (UNGA res. 52/86, 12), upon the recommendation of the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice and the Economic and Social Council. The Compendium is being offered as a practical means for policy makers, criminal justice officials and other professionals to learn from the experience of other jurisdictions in implementing the various elements of the proposed Model Strategies. For each one of the Strategies, the compendium offers a number of examples of promising practices, programs, policies and legislation. Information is also provided on additional published material and reference sources, as well as on the means of contacting individuals and organizations who might have further information about a particular practice or program. The present copy of the Compendium is basically a printout from a database which will soon be available electronically, on a web site, for ease of access and consultation. Readers will note that some of the elements of the compendium, particularly those which were not originally available in English, are still under development. The objective of this project is to produce an instrument which will be useful for years to come. To this end, the Compendium will be periodically updated to include new information and new examples of successful practices as they become available. In particular, information relating to the evaluation of existing practices will be sought and included in the Compendium as it becomes available. We invite your comments and suggestions. 3 Table of Contents I.
