Located in Montreal, Canada, the International

Centre for the Prevention of Crime (ICPC) is the

most important international crime prevention

organization. Founded in 1994, ICPC’s mission is

to promote the adoption of international stand-

ards regarding crime prevention and criminal

justice in order to enhance community safety

and improve the quality of life for all. ICPC works

with member States, international and regional

organizations and authorities at all levels of gov-

ernment, and maintains an active presence in

the Americas, Europe, Africa and Oceania.

ICPC offers a wide range of knowledge - tech-

nical and conceptual - on the theme of crime

prevention, as well as policies, practices and

related tools to reduce risk factors associated

with crime, violence and insecurity.

Message from ICPC Director General, Daniel Cauchy

ICPC’s office work has continued to expand as we look at the number of recent achievements and activities still on-

going. We closed 2015 a little out of breath but still very pleased with our results. Once again, our financial situation

greatly improved this year enabling the Centre to move away from daily budget planning and focus more on the

future with further developments in staff and projects for 2016.

In 2015, ICPC’s main objectives were to renew and boost relationships with our members, encourage new collabora-

tions and add new partners to our network. You will be able to see in the report how we made considerable progress

on the matter.

Through our Mini-Conferences and participation in international events, we were able this year to fulfill our mandate

in knowledge sharing so dear to our members. Montreal, Ottawa, Quebec City, Paris, Brussels, Stockholm, Lund, Mex-

ico, Bogotá, Panama, Nairobi and Doha have received ICPC’s members for several events where knowledge sharing

was fruitful on both sides.

Let’s not forget to mention two major scheduled events of this year. First of all, the 13th United Nations Congress on

Crime Prevention in Doha where Margaret Shaw represented ICPC and made a presentation in the framework of a

workshop, and our 5th International Conference on Crime Observation and Criminal Analysis in Mexico. This event

was organized thanks to the contribution of various partners and was an opportunity to bring together several mem-

bers, old and new.

Finally, this year was marked by the official retirement of our Programme Director, Serges Bruneau. M. Bruneau has

played a major role in ICPC over the past ten years, so important that we agreed to keep him on hand as a mentor

and representative of ICPC, just as we did with Ms. Margaret Shaw. This brings stability and continuity in the expertise

while allowing our young and dynamic team to have solid foundation and carry with the amazing work they have

been able to produce this year. It is thanks to our staff, interns and volunteers that we can be proud of our achieve-

ments.

I hope you will enjoy reading this report and that it makes you as enthusiast as I am about ICPC’s future. To know

more about it, follow us on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, our website and subscribe to our newsletter.

KNOWLEDGE

CENTRE

ICPC has developed publications

on Safety in public institutions,

Safety in ground public transport,

the prevention of drug-related

crime and an international com-

parative study on the prevention of

radicalization.

Annual Report 2015 6

ICPC Publications

Safety in public institutions (2013-2015)

Safety in public institutions such as schools, hospitals

and the Municipal Offices has become a source of

concern in the international arena and a central issue

with regard to the safety of citizens. It is in this context

that ICPC, with the financial support and contribution

to the content from the Quebec Ministry of Public

Safety, conducted a study on safety in public

institutions.

Safety in ground public transport (2013-2015)

Safety in ground public transport is an important issue

in a world where this type of transport is gaining in

popularity and consequently is seeing its traffic

growing steadily. Indeed, recourse to this mode of

transport may be hampered both by rampant

instances of crime and the sense of insecurity felt by

users and by staff. In 2013 ICPC, in cooperation with

partners such as Transdev Canada Inc, the Agence

métropolitaine de transport (Metropolitan

Transportation Agency - Montreal), the Observatoire

national de la délinquance dans les transports

(National Delinquency in Transports Observatory -

France) began a study on the issue of Safety in ground

public transport. The preliminary results of the study

were presented at the 11th International Colloquium

of ICPC in Palermo, Italy, and a detailed report was

released in 2015 and was presented at the 5th

International Conference on Crime Observation and

Criminal Analysis in Mexico. The report presents how

to conduct a diagnosis on safety in ground public

transport, the observation of this crime and finally the

effective and innovative prevention measures that are

implemented worldwide.

Report on the prevention of drug-related crime

Over the course of 2015, ICPC wrote a report for the

Government of Canada on the prevention of drug-

related crime. More precisely, the study focuses on the

legislative frameworks and programmes to prevent

violent behavior associated with the acquisition and

use of drugs. A comparative analysis was performed

between seven national drug strategies: Canada,

Australia, the United States, the Netherlands, Portugal,

the United Kingdom and Switzerland, the objective

was to identify measures that reduce drug-related

crime and that can be potentially adaptable in Canada.

International comparative study on prevention of

radicalization

This international study aims to gather information

regarding both conceptualization and trends, and

tools of prevention (legislative and practical),

especially those linked to the social prevention of this

issue.

Annual Report 2015 7

In order to accomplish this goal, the study will be

conducted in two phases

1) Phase one was funded by France: a systematic

review of specialized

literature. From it, good

practices were identified

and described, as well as

institutions and actors

that can contribute to the

prevention of radicalization. This phase will be

published in January 2016.

2) Phase two was funded by Canada: interviews with

key actors in various

countries will be

carried out

throughout 2016.

Annual Report 2015 8

evaluation of the recommendations it issued. It

focuses on the scientific standards of data

collection, analysis and dissemination, as well as

the management of the Observatory.

2. Creation of a programme for the transfer,

dissemination and promotion of information

created within the Observatory. This consists of

creating a programme for the dissemination and

promotion of scientific work that uses the data

collected by the Observatory and addresses the

topics the Observatory wants to prioritize in the

context of crime prevention.

3. Training of the Observatory team in terms of

crime prevention, crime analysis and observatory

management.

4. Comparative study of crime prevention

programmes in Latin America. This study is

divided into two parts: a review and global

analysis of effective practices in crime prevention

in the region and a comparative study focused on

ten Latin American countries that have

New members of the Board of Directors

ICPC is delighted to welcome two new members of

the Board of Directors, Mr. Peter Sloly, and Mr. Claude

Management - 2015

The Sûreté du Québec renewed the mandate of Daniel

Cauchy as Director General for a third year in February

2015, continuing the stability that the Centre has been

enjoying in terms of management, and allowing him

to continue his work on strengthening ICPC finances

and key relationships with partners after several chal-

lenging years.

Past ICPC Directors, Serges Bruneau (Programs) and

Margaret Shaw (Analysis and Exchange), both retired

from full-time employment with ICPC, but have con-

tinued to collaborate with ICPC as consultants, provid-

ing guidance, coaching and mentoring to staff on a

variety of projects in 2015, including the initial phase

of the 5th International Report and the 5th Interna-

tional Conference on Crime Observation and Criminal

Analysis in Mexico City.

Annual Report 2015 20

Finance

Funding for 2015 activities came as always from di-

verse sources: contributions from member govern-

ments and cities, membership fees, and project fund-

ing. The Centre continued to encounter challenges

regarding cash flow during the year, however the im-

pact on the daily running of the organisation was felt

much less in 2015 than in previous years. The issues

were caused by the late arrival in the contributions

coming from countries that have traditionally funded

the core activities of the ICPC, and changes to ongo-

ing projects on the part of funders. Two major fun-

ders of general ICPC activities, the governments of

Chile and South Africa, both decided not to renew

their commitment in 2015, the former due to a

change in government and the latter for financial

reasons. Chile then reconfirmed its commitment for

two more years, starting in 2016.

Evolution of the General Budget

Major funding commitments were renewed in 2015 by

the governments of Canada, Quebec and Norway, and

the government of France continued its annual contri-

bution. The City of Montreal also provided both gen-

eral and specific project funding. General funding

accounted for 26% of total revenues in 2015, a de-

crease of 11% from 2014, and project funding in-

creased by 11% from the previous year to 74%.

Despite the challenges encountered, ICPC closed the

financial year once again with a surplus of revenues

over expenses, mainly due to the continued support of

key funding partnerships and careful management of

expenditures. The end of 2015 finds the Centre staffed

with a core team of three analysts, with several ana-

lysts joining the team on a short-term contractual

basis for specific projects over the year. A constant

rigorous approach to costing proposals and new pro-

jects, and improvements in project management have

meant that ICPC is becoming a financially efficient

organization in terms of delivering projects on budget

and on time.

The audited Financial Statements will be available

from March 2016.

organization is dedicated not only to the restoration

of buildings and urban spaces in this sector to counter

the effects of decades of neglect and degradation, but

also, more importantly, to emphasis on the human

factors: the needs and wishes of its residents, the

improvement of their living conditions, and the

sector’s users and visitors. In other words, the

foundation seeks to revitalize the neighborhood in the

broadest sense of the concept, through the

development of real estate restoration programmes,

renovation and provision of public services, electricity

and telephone supply infrastructure, modernization of

roads and lighting. Furthermore, the organization

implements security and monitoring plans, promotes

the diversification of property use, and stimulates the

sector’s repopulation and residential occupancy of

buildings.
