LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR

It is my privilege to inform readers of the successful completion of the 121stInternational Training Course on “Enhancement of Community-Based Alternatives toIncarceration at all Stages of the Criminal Justice Process” which took place from 20
May to 11 July 2002. In this Course, we welcomed 10 Japanese and 15 overseas
participants: 9 from Asia, 2 from the Caribbean, 2 from Africa, 1 from Oceania and 1
from the Middle East. They included police, public prosecutors, judges, correctional
officers, probation officers and other high-ranking public officials. As this newsletter
demonstrates, the Course was extremely productive. It consisted of Individual
Presentations, Group Workshop sessions, General Discussion sessions, visits torelevant criminal justice agencies, and presentations by visiting experts, faculty
members and ad hoc lecturers.
The United Nations has long recognized the necessity of formulating andimplementing alternatives to imprisonment in order to ameliorate prison overcrowding
and encourage the reintegration of offenders into the community. The manifestation ofthis concern was the adoption of the United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for NonCustodial Measures (Tokyo Rules) by the United Nations General Assembly in 1990.
These Rules provide member states with a framework of various non-custodial measuresand a number of states have attempted to harmonize their national systems with theRules by developing alternatives to imprisonment at various stages of the criminal
justice process.
Despite international efforts to develop the use of community-based alternatives
to incarceration many countries throughout the world have seen their prison populations
increase. This has been particularly noticed in the Asia-Pacific region. Prison
overcrowding does not only cause problems in the management of penal institutions but
also threatens the rehabilitation of offenders. The need to enhance community-basedalternatives to incarceration is reinforced by an increasingly accepted global wisdom thatunless offenders need to be separated from society then they should be placed oncommunity programmes which provide more effective rehabilitation and utilize
available resources more efficiently.
During the eight-week period, the participants diligently and comprehensively
examined measures to implement and improve community-based alternatives toincarceration at all stages of the criminal justice process. This was accomplishedprimarily through comparative analysis of the current situation, possibilities andproblems encountered in community-based alternatives and an examination of theavailability and utilization of such alternatives. Our in-depth discussions enabled us to
fully appreciate the range of community-based alternatives to imprisonment and put
forth effective and practical solutions to the problems faced by these alternatives.

2
I would like to offer my sincere congratulations to all the participants upon theirsuccessful completion of the Course, made possible by their strenuous efforts. My
heartfelt gratitude goes to the visiting experts and ad hoc lecturers who contributed agreat deal to the Course's success. Furthermore, I appreciate the indispensable assistanceand cooperation extended to UNAFEI by various agencies and institutions, which helped
diversify the programme.
A warm tribute must be paid to the Japan International Cooperation Agency(JICA) for its immeasurable support throughout the Course. At the same time, I must
express great appreciation to the Asia Crime Prevention Foundation (ACPF) and its
branch organizations for their substantial contributions as well as to the Fuchu Rotary
Club and Soroptomist International, Fuchu. Lastly, I owe my gratitude to all theindividuals whose unselfish efforts behind the scenes contributed significantly to thesuccessful realization of this Course.
Upon returning to their home countries, I genuinely believe that, like theirpredecessors, the strong determination and dedication of the participants will enable
them to work towards the improvement of their respective nation's criminal justicesystems, and to the benefit of the international society as a whole.
Finally, I would like to reiterate my best regards to the participants of the 121stInternational Training Course. I hope that the experience they gained during the Course
proves valuable in their daily work, and that the bonds fostered among the participants,
visiting experts, lecturers and UNAFEI staff will continue to grow for years to come.

THE 121ST INTERNATIONAL TRAINING COURSE“ENHANCEMENT OF COMMUNITY-BASED ALTERNATIVES TO
INCARCERATION AT ALL STAGES OF THE CRIMINAL JUSTICEPROCESS”

Course Rationale

The United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for Non-Custodial Measures(Tokyo Rules) was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on the basis of arecommendation by the Eighth United Nations Congress on the Prevention of Crimeand the Treatment of Offenders in 1990, which provides guidelines and basic
principles for diversified non-custodial measures. The Tokyo Rules aim at reducing
the use of incarceration and rationalizing criminal justice policies by enhancing
community-based approaches in order to alleviate problems relating to prison
overcrowding and encourage the reintegration of offenders into the community.
Since its adoption, according to the survey results of the Tokyo Rules
submitted to the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice at its tenthsession in 2001, the Tokyo Rules have been recognized as important in theiradministration of justice by most states and a number of states have undertaken
special efforts to align national systems with the Rules by prescribing the introduction
and use of non-custodial measures by law or other regulations. However, efforts to
reduce the use of incarceration by adopting alternatives have generally not provensuccessful in most states. Indeed, currently, the continuous increase of the prison
population and overcrowding is one of the major pressing problems to be solved incriminal justice in many countries.
In response to this situation, “The Vienna Declaration on Crime and Justice:
Meeting the Challenges of the Twenty-First Century”, adopted by the Tenth United
Nations Congress on the Prevention of Crime and the Treatment of Offenders, held in
Vienna in 2000, stressed the importance of promoting effective alternatives toincarceration in order to contain the growth and overcrowding of correctional
facilities’ populations (para.26). As a follow-up, draft plans of action for the
implementation of the Vienna Declaration is to be adopted by the next Commission
on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice in 2002, where a paragraph on action on
prison overcrowding and alternatives to incarceration is included. It encourages
member states to prioritize non-custodial measures to imprisonment where possible,
and to deal with minor offences using community-based options such as mediation
between concerned parties. It also recommends conducting public awareness andeducation campaigns on alternatives to imprisonment and how they work.
No one would say with certainty that all offenders can be rehabilitated,
however, considering that the vast majority will return to the community, every effort
should be made to encourage and assist offenders to become law-abiding citizens,which is ultimately in the best public interest. Overcrowded correctional facilities
cannot effectively treat, manage and return offenders to the community as law-abiding
citizens, as it puts a strain on staff, budgets, programming and so on. More

4
importantly, it is commonly believed that, unless offenders need to be separated fromsociety, community-based programmes should be pursued as much as possible,
because such programmes are more effective and appropriate than incarceration interms of the rehabilitation of offenders and the efficient allocation of resources forcriminal justice.
In this context, recognizing the urgent necessity of making a variety ofcommunity-based measures and programmes available, it is important to earnestly
examine and review why alternatives to incarceration have not been adopted more
effectively and efficiently and to find out what needs to be done to enhancecommunity-based measures and programmes as alternatives.
Among the various obstacles to the development and further adoption ofcommunity-based alternatives might be the lack of support and understanding of thecriminal justice practitioner. Because of this, in many countries, suitable communitybased measures exist, but they are not used. Lack of public support andunderstanding may also be obstacles as it is necessary for practitioners to work in
partnership with communities to successfully implement community-based measures.
Scarcity of resources is also a problem, which was highlighted by the abovementioned survey results, in terms of both funds and personnel. It would beappropriate, as recommended in the conclusion of the survey results of the Tokyo
rules, for each government to review the allocation of funds and other resources foralternatives to incarceration in criminal justice systems.
There are many forms of community-based alternatives, which can beprovided at various stages of the criminal justice process from the pre-trial stage, suchas at the police or prosecution stage to the post-sentencing stage. Some of these arecommunity service, probation or other forms of supervision in the community,
conditional sentences that allow offenders to serve their sentences in the community
with certain conditions such as obtaining treatment for drug problems, fines,
restitution, electronic monitoring, conditional release such as parole, which are all
initiatives that attempt to either avoid the use of custody or reduce the length ofcustody. Besides these relatively traditional alternatives, there are some examples ofinnovative community-based alternatives under way in some countries, one being therestorative justice approach, which has implications for the reduced use or length ofcustody. This approach is usually used as community diversion programmes at the
pre-trial stage, that is, when a police officer or a prosecutor determines diversion isappropriate, the case is referred to a resolution conference programme that involves
the victim, families, friends and the community. All forms of these alternatives, aswell as other forms, can be explored during the course.
The purpose of this International Training Course is to offer participants
opportunities to share experiences and views on the challenges faced in the course of
adopting community-based alternatives to incarceration and find out what kinds ofmeasures should be taken to enhance community-based programmes and measures toencourage minimal incarceration and the rehabilitation of offenders at all stages of thecriminal justice process. Among the major topics to be discussed are the following
items:(1) To assess needs for enhancing community-based alternatives in each country

5(2) To examine the current administration of community-based alternatives –scope of availability and utilization at each stage of the criminal justiceprocess in each country(3) To analyze problems in the administration of alternatives to incarceration andto explore any solutions

Course Summary
Lectures
In total, 14 lectures were presented by visiting experts, 3 by ad hoc lecturers, 1
by the Deputy Director and 5 by the professors of UNAFEI. Six distinguished criminal
justice practitioners and scholars from abroad served as UNAFEI visiting experts. They
lectured on issues relating to the main theme, and contributed significantly to the
Course by encouraging discussions after their own lectures, participating in thediscussions of other programmes, and conversing with the participants on informal
occasions. Additionally, distinguished senior officials of the Government of Japan
delivered ad hoc lectures. The lecturers and lecture topics are listed on pages 8 and 9.
Individual Presentations
During the first three weeks, each Japanese and overseas participant delivered a
45-minute Individual Presentation, which introduced the actual situation, problems andfuture prospects of his/her country. These papers were compiled into a book entitled"COUNTRY REPORTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL TRAINING COURSE IN
CRIME PREVENTION" and distributed to all the participants. The titles of these
Individual Presentation papers are listed on pages 10 and 11.
Group Workshop Sessions
Group Workshop Sessions further examined the subtopics of the main theme.
In order to conduct each session effectively, the UNAFEI faculty selected individuals toserve as ‘group members’ for the sub-topics, based on their response to a questionnaire
previously distributed. Selected participants served as chairpersons, co-chairpersons,rapporteurs or co-rapporteurs, and faculty members served as advisers. Each group’s
primary responsibility was to explore and develop their designated topics in the Group
Workshop Sessions. The participants and UNAFEI faculty seriously studied the
topics and exchanged their views based on information obtained through personal
experience, the Individual Presentations, lectures and so forth. After the Group
Workshop Sessions, reports were drafted based on the discussions in the conference
room. These reports were subsequently presented in the Report-Back Session, where
they were endorsed as the reports of the Course. Very brief summaries of the Group
Workshop reports are provided on pages 12 to 14.
General Discussion Sessions
General Discussion Sessions were held where all the participants, UNAFEI
faculty members and visiting experts met to formulate the basis for further discussion
in the Group Workshops. A chairperson, co-chairperson, rapporteur, and two corapporteurs were elected by the participants to manage these sessions. The purpose of
the discussions was to assess the needs for enhancing community-based alternatives
in each participating country. In particular, the current situation of prison
overcrowding and its problems in the participants’ countries were identified anddiscussed. A very brief summary of the Group Discussion Sessions appears on page15.

7
Visits and Special Events
Visits to various agencies and institutions in Japan helped the participants obtaina more practical understanding of the Japanese criminal justice system. In addition to
the Course's academic agenda, many activities were arranged to provide a greater
understanding of Japanese society and culture, with the assistance of variousorganizations and individuals, including the Asia Crime Prevention Foundation (ACPF).

Report Summary

The members of this group consisted of all of the participants of the 121stInternational Training Course. This group was advised by the UNAFEI faculty
members. The issues of the continuing increase in prison populations andovercrowding were identified as the two major pressing problems to be addressed inmany countries. It is accepted that the vast majority of offenders will return to thecommunity and every effort should be made to encourage, guide and assist them toreintegrate into society as law-abiding citizens, which is ultimately in the bestinterests of the victim, the offender, family and the community in general.
Throughout the general discussion, the current situation of prison overcrowding
and its problems were identified and discussed among each participating country. The
availability of community-based alternatives and their enhancement were thendiscussed. Several key factors required to achieve the goal of enhancing communitybased alternatives effectively and efficiently in order to reduce prison overcrowding,reform and reintegrate offenders into society were identified.

INFORMATION ABOUT PROGRAMMES & ACTIVITIESForthcoming Programmes

The 122nd International Training Course

The 122nd International Training Course, entitled “The Effective
Administration of Criminal Justice to Tackle Trafficking in Human Beings andSmuggling of Migrants”, is scheduled to take place from 2 September to 25 October
2002. This training course will analyse the current situation of human trafficking,identify the current problems in the detection, investigation and prosecution of suchoffenders and explore effective ways to tackle trafficking and the smuggling of
migrants.
Rationale
The situation of trafficking in human beings and smuggling of migrants has
become more and more serious these days.
Many factors have been pointed out as the causes of this situation, such as
the root causes of poverty, economic disparity in developing countries, the unstablesituation of a country caused by conflicts, civil wars, terrorism, political persecution
and natural calamities like drought.
The globalization in transportation,communication and commerce should be noted as one of the major factors
contributing to widespread trafficking and smuggling throughout the world.
Moreover, transnational organized crime groups have been heavily involved intrafficking and smuggling, and they have been making huge profits from these
activities.
Trafficking and smuggling not only disrupt the established immigration
policies of the destination countries, but also pose a threat to the fundamental rights ofthe persons concerned. The exploitative nature of the trafficking in human beings
often amounts to a modern form of enforced servitude, with forced prostitution
ranking highest among the means of exploitation.
In recognition of the gravity of the above-mentioned situation, theinternational community has been taking steps against it in recent years. In 1999, theGlobal Programme against Trafficking in Human Beings was designed by the Centre
for International Crime Prevention (CICP) in collaboration with the United Nations
Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute (UNICRI).
In November 2000, the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted theUnited Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime (hereinafterreferred to as “the TOC Convention”). The TOC Convention is accompanied by its
three protocols, two of which were adopted on the same day with the TOC
Convention, i.e., “Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons,
Especially Women and Children” and “Protocol Against the Smuggling of Migrants
by Land, Sea and Air.”28

The TOC Convention was opened for signature by Member States in
December 2000 in Palermo, Italy. More than 120 countries attended the Conference
and signed the TOC Convention, which will be open for signature until 12 December
2002, in New York, USA.
As suggested in the above-mentioned international instruments and otherinternational forums, trafficking and smuggling are complex and multifaceted
problems. Respective countries and the international community should deal withthese problems by alleviating the root causes, by raising awareness of dangers of
trafficking and smuggling, by effective immigration control, and by effective criminal
justice administration. International co-operation among countries of origin, transit
and destination should be encouraged.
Effective tools in the criminal justice system to tackle trafficking andsmuggling, especially conducted by transnational organized crime groups, aresuggested in the TOC Convention, such as electronic surveillance, immunity, andwitness protection programmes. Victims of trafficking and smuggling, who may beconsidered in violation of immigration laws, should be adequately protected andsupported, as trafficking and smuggling have exploitative natures, and their assistanceis crucial for successfully prosecuting the traffickers and smugglers.
UNAFEI, as a regional institute affiliated with the United Nations for theprevention of crime and the treatment of offenders, has been undertaking a series ofinternational training courses and seminars under the general theme of “transnationalorganized crime.” This course is part of UNAFEI’s continuing commitment to thisinternationally important theme, especially focusing on the two protocols concerning
trafficking and smuggling.
Giving due consideration to the above rationale, this training course purports
to: (1) analyse the current situation and causes of trafficking in human beings andsmuggling of migrants; (2) identify current problems in the detection, investigation,prosecution and punishment of the said offenders, and solutions for them; and (3)explore the effective ways to tackle trafficking and smuggling. Particular focus will
be given to the effective implementation of the two protocols concerning trafficking
and smuggling. Sharing practical information and experiences on how other countries
tackle our common issues will facilitate our efforts in tackling trafficking andsmuggling.
In the discussion of this course, focus will be placed on the following
elements:(1) Overview of the current situation of trafficking and smuggling.
(a) Modus Operandi and routes of trafficking and smuggling(b) Forms of exploitation of trafficked and smuggled people(2) Analysis of the causes of trafficking and smuggling(3) Components and legal frameworks for tackling trafficking and smuggling, andtheir best practices:29(a) Border control and travel documents(b) Law enforcement(c) Prosecution(d) Court(e) Legislative issues, e.g. criminalization of trafficking and smuggling(f) International cooperation
