The DPS, with the support of the
Open Society Institute,
jointly organized with FLACSO-Chile a second Meeting of Caribbean Academics and
Experts on Public Security: Looking ahead towards MISPA III held in
Montego Bay, Jamaica, on May 19 and 20, 2010.
The purpose of this meeting was to analyze the MISPA process, the
different document produced and the initiatives implemented by the
OAS General Secretariat since the adoption of the
Commitment of
Public Security in the Americas by the Ministers during MISPA I,
in Mexico, 2008, and the adoption of the
Consensus of Santo Domingo on Public Security
during the MISPA II, in Dominican Republic, 2009. The
recommendations emerging from this meeting will be presented during
the Meeting of Experts on Public Security in preparation for MISPA
III which will take place in Santiago, Chile at the end of 2010.
This second meeting builds on the
Meeting of Academics and Experts, convened on March
6-7, 2008 in Montego Bay, Jamaica, which focused on the prevention and control of crime and violence
in the Caribbean. It
brought together a selected group of academics and experts, in order
to identify and propose a series of recommendations for improving
public security from a uniquely Caribbean perspective. Two
meetings of Ministers responsible for Public Security in the
Americas were consequently held in Mexico in 2008 and in the
Dominican Republic in 2009.
