MAIN ACTIVITIES OF UNAFEI(1 January 2022 – 31 December 2022)
I. ROLE AND MANDATE
The Asia and Far East Institute for the Prevention of Crime and the Treatment of Offenders(UNAFEI) was established in Tokyo, Japan, in 1962 pursuant to an agreement between the United
Nations and the Government of Japan. Its goal is to contribute to sound social development in the
Asia and the Pacific region by promoting regional cooperation in the field of crime prevention andcriminal justice, through training and research.
UNAFEI has paid utmost attention to the priority themes identified by the Commission on
Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice. Moreover, UNAFEI has been taking up urgent,contemporary problems in the administration of criminal justice in the region, especially problems
generated by rapid socio-economic change (e.g., transnational organized crime, corruption,
economic and computer crime and the reintegration of prisoners into society) as the main themes
and topics for its training courses, seminars and research projects.
II. TRAINING
Training is the principal area and priority of the Institute’s work programmes. In theinternational training courses and seminars, participants from different areas of the criminal justicefield discuss and study pressing problems of criminal justice administration from various
perspectives. They deepen their understanding, with the help of lectures and advice from the
UNAFEI faculty, visiting experts and ad hoc lecturers. This so-called “problem-solving throughan integrated approach” is one of the chief characteristics of UNAFEI programmes.
Each year, UNAFEI conducts two international training courses and one international seminar.
Approximately one hundred government officials from various overseas countries receive
fellowships from the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA is an independentadministrative institution for ODA programmes) each year to participate in all UNAFEI training
programmes.
Training courses and seminars are attended by both overseas and Japanese participants.
Overseas participants come not only from the Asia-Pacific region but also from the Middle andNear East, Latin America and Africa. These participants are experienced practitioners andadministrators holding relatively senior positions in the criminal justice field.
By the end of 2022, UNAFEI had conducted a total of 179 international training courses andseminars. Over 6,300 criminal justice personnel representing 142 different countries andadministrative regions have participated in these seminars. UNAFEI also conducts a number ofother specialized courses, both country and subject focused, in which hundreds of otherparticipants from many countries have been involved. In their respective countries, UNAFEI
alumni have been playing leading roles and hold important posts in the fields of crime prevention
and the treatment of offenders, and in related organizations.

ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2022

A. The 177th International Senior Seminar
1. Theme, Duration and Participants “Preventing Reoffending through a Multi-stakeholder Approach”
 From 12 January to 3 February 2022
 19 overseas participants from 12 jurisdictions
2. Programme Overview
As stipulated in the Kyoto Declaration, preventing reoffending through a multistakeholder approach is an important theme in the criminal justice field internationally. Thisseminar aims to promote these efforts in participating countries, by sharing experiences anddiscussing (i) case disposition and penalties with due regard to rehabilitative perspectives and(ii) tailoring intervention, treatment and support to individual needs by effectively
incorporating inter-agency cooperation and public-private partnerships. This programme was
exclusively conducted online due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
3. The Content of the Programme(1) Lectures and other presentations
The participants were from a wide range of time zones, including Asia, Africa and Latin
America, and they needed to continue their professional and family duties during the seminar.
Therefore, all lectures were recorded in advance and broadcast on-demand in order to allow
participants to view lectures at their convenience. After watching the on-demand lectures,
participants were required to submit questions or comments via an online learning
management system, and their questions were answered in Q&A live sessions with therespective lecturers. This way, we tried to ensure both convenience and interactivity in
lectures.
The lectures were firstly delivered by UNAFEI professors on the criminal justice system
in Japan, as well as on specific topics relating to this seminar such as promoting measures for
reducing reoffending, non-custodial sentences, assessment and re-entry support. After that,the specialist lectures and ad hoc lecturers were delivered, followed by Q&A sessions.
Furthermore, as a special session, eight Japanese volunteer probation officers were invited toshare their experience as community volunteers.

Participants were divided into four groups considering their time zones, Individual
Presentations topics and professional backgrounds.
Individual Presentations
Participants shared the practices and the challenges in their respective countries
regarding the theme of the seminar through their individual presentations. All thepresentations were recorded and uploaded online so that participants in othergroups could watch them afterwards.
Discussions
Built on the knowledge gained through lectures and individual presentations, theparticipants engaged in live discussions to explore more about the theme of theseminar. The subtopics discussed were: (i) Imposition of penalties and casedispositions with due regard to rehabilitative perspectives and (ii) Interventions,
treatment and support tailored to offenders’ individual needs, with sufficientconsideration of a multi-stakeholder approach. Participants shared challenges andgood practices in their respective countries with group members, and discussed theroot causes and necessary actions for common challenges.
An overview of the discussions is as follows:•

Imposition of penalties and case dispositions with due regard to rehabilitative
perspectives
Although it is necessary to ensure due process and proportionality in imposing
penalties and case dispositions, the participants reaffirmed the importance of effective
use of non-custodial measures as far as possible since they can avoid the negative
impact of imprisonment on rehabilitation of offenders and facilitate their social
reintegration. They shared the legal basis for non-custodial measures, including theapplicable options, criteria, discretionary power given to judges, prosecutors etc. It
was reported that the existence of laws that provide non-custodial options does notnecessarily mean they are fully used in practice. Many factors that would affect theactive use of non-custodial measures were discussed, such as the necessity ofsentencing guidelines, appropriate assessment required for appropriate use of noncustodial measures, the authority to implement non-custodial sentence in thecommunity and collaboration with community partners who can support offenders. It
was also noted that efforts should be made for providing adequate capacity-building
and promoting understanding for rehabilitation of offenders among judiciary and law
enforcement officers.

ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2022•

Interventions, treatment and support tailored to offenders’ individual needs
To make interventions, treatment and support for offenders most effective,
participants recognized the importance of assessment throughout the criminal justiceprocess to identify the individual needs of offenders. Various socio-economic factors
relating to crime, such as poverty, isolation, association with gangs and other formsof organized crime, etc. were considered. Participants stressed the importance of
support for employment, education and various support in collaboration withstakeholders to reintegrate offenders into the community, but various challenges
which hamper rehabilitation and social reintegration of offenders were also discussed.
In prisons, for example, overcrowding was indicated as a significant factor that
impedes rehabilitative environments that would facilitate offender treatment, while inthe community, lack of monitoring or supporting systems for released offenders, aswell as resources to fulfil them, were discussed. Furthermore, many participants
regarded the issue of general perceptions of offenders as critically important, sinceprevailing punitive attitudes would make it difficult to engage various stakeholders insupporting offender rehabilitation. Therefore, government initiatives not only forpromoting inter-agency coordination and community engagement in supporting
offender rehabilitation but also for raising awareness of the importance of offender
rehabilitation were emphasized.

4. Feedback from the Participants
At the end of the seminar, we invited feedback from all participants. They said that, eventhough conducted online, they learned a lot from lectures and group discussions, and many ofthem indicated that the seminar served as an opportunity to reaffirm the importance ofincorporating rehabilitative perspectives and multi-stakeholder approaches in their respective
professional areas. They also indicated that, if it were conducted in person, they would learn
more about the Japanese system and practice by visiting relevant institutions in Japan.
5. Comments from the Programming Officer
This seminar discussed the theme of preventing reoffending. In order to reduce
reoffending, a wide range of individual and social factors which would induce or deter crimeshould be addressed. It cannot be achieved only by efforts of penal institutions. It requires
active involvement of relevant agencies with various expertise, as well as various community
resources.
In order to ensure that the “multi-stakeholder approach” is not just empty words, key
persons are required to make a difference in their systems and practices. The participants in thisseminar fully understood the concept of the theme and were highly motivated to learn fromthe experiences of other countries and lectures. They showed great discernment in analysing
their current systems and practices, and they recognized the need to review their systems andpractices from the viewpoint of offender rehabilitation, with due attention to society andhuman rights. I believe such sincere attitudes towards learning stimulated their discussions,and I learned a lot from the participants.
The International Senior Seminar invites high-ranking policymakers and practitioners,
and it provides them with a great opportunity to learn deeply about important themes incriminal justice. I hope that the knowledge, thoughts and new perspectives on reducing
reoffending gained in this 177th seminar will be gradually disseminated to various

4

ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2022

stakeholders in their respective countries, leading toward a global society in which “no one
will be left behind” as envisaged in the SDGs.

Participants were divided into four groups based on time zones and the themes of theirchoice for the Individual Presentations sessions and discussions.
 Individual Presentations
Participants shared the practices and the challenges in their respective jurisdictions
regarding the theme of the Programme through their individual presentations. All thepresentations were recorded and uploaded online for reference by participants in othergroups or those who could not attend the sessions.
 Discussions
Participants had fruitful discussions on the themes of the Programme: (i) finding,preserving, collecting, analysing and utilizing digital evidence and (ii) international
cooperation regarding investigation of cybercrime and all other crimes that involve
digital evidence.
•

Finding, preserving, collecting, analysing and utilizing digital evidenceFirst, common issues mainly discussed were “capacity building of criminal justicepractitioners dealing with digital evidence”, considering that there weredifferences in the legal systems and procedures for the handing of digital evidence
in each country. The participants, based on the actual situation in their respective
countries, exchanged opinions on the “necessity of acquiring specialized
knowledge” and “enhancement of digital forensic technology and equipment”.
Proposals were made regarding the need for public relations and awareness-raising
activities as part of measures against cybercrime, and many pointed out theimportance of public-private partnerships for that purpose.

•

International cooperation regarding investigation of cybercrime and all othercrimes that involve digital evidence
Regarding international cooperation, the general issues are the delay in responding
to requests for mutual legal assistance in investigations, the complexity ofprocedures, and the small number of member countries of the Budapest
Convention. As measures to promote international cooperation, the participants
were in favour of promoting informal information exchanges, recognizing thenecessity of collecting and analysing digital evidence in collaboration with law
enforcement agencies in other countries.

(3) Action Plans
Each group concluded the programme by presenting their own action plans based on thechallenges they identified and what they learned in the lectures, presentations by thecolleagues and discussions.
4. Feedback from the Participants
Almost all participants commented that they would have preferred face-to-face training inJapan; however, various lectures and discussions were enriched and informative knowledge
and practices were exchanged during the online course.
5. Comments from the Programming Officer
The theme of “Cybercrime and Digital Evidence” is an issue that all countries are interested
in, and I felt the enthusiasm of each participant in the course. Information and communication
technology is advancing day by day, and new types of cybercrime are appearing one after
another. In this regard, effective countermeasures against them have become an urgent issue
in each country. For this reason, as each lecture contained cutting-edge knowledge andpractical experiences, including contents that were difficult for participants to obtain in theirown countries, the participants were highly interested, which led to active discussions. We
hope that the knowledge gained from this course will be utilized in the development andenhancement of each participant’s jurisdiction.
C. The 179th International Training Course
1. Theme, Duration and Participants
 “Juvenile Justice and Beyond – Effective Measures for the Rehabilitation of Juveniles
in Conflict with the Law and Young Adult Offenders”
 From 6 to 29 September 2022
 24 overseas participants from 16 countries
2. Programme Overview
Juveniles are socially and psychologically immature, and they are susceptible to stress andtrauma. On the other hand, juveniles are often more responsive to efforts at rehabilitation andreintegration with appropriate intervention and support. Hence, it is important for correctional
services to promote well-being and personal development by providing appropriate measuresand treatment, making use of the formative period. In addition, this approach should also be
extended to young adult offenders because cognitive function changes gradually;
consequently, young adults are similar to juveniles in many respects.
In light of the above, this programme provided opportunities to share each country's
practices and discuss effective institutional and community-based treatment and juvenile
justice systems for juveniles in conflict with the law and young adult offenders.
3. Method of Training
This programme was exclusively conducted online due to the Covid-19 pandemic. In
consideration of time differences between countries, the programme was conducted in two
groups. Since the participants needed to continue their professional and family duties during
the programme, some lectures were recorded in advance and broadcast on-demand for theirconvenience, followed by live Q & A sessions with the lecturers.

Participants were divided into four groups according to time zones. The participants
discussed a fictional case of a juvenile offender and explored appropriate measures and8

ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2022

treatment for the juvenile based on risk assessment and best practices for rehabilitation andreintegration, which are the main topics of this training programme.
A 16-year-old male juvenile in the fictional case faced multiple problems in his family
and educational environment and, consequently, he assaulted his colleague. Based on the factsof the case, the following three topics were discussed: (i) assessment of the juvenile's risk ofreoffending, (ii) treatment, education and vocational training necessary for the juvenile, and(iii) improvement of the relationship between the juvenile and his family and support for his
family. The results of the discussion were presented by each group.
Assessment of offenders is effective in measuring the risk of reoffending as well as inimproving the treatment of offenders. In this programme, there were several explanations on
the importance of the risk assessment, and each group discussed the risk of the juvenile in thefictional case, referring to their knowledge gained from the lectures. The participants
constructively discussed and developed best practices for each group although the systems
and practices differ from country to country.
(6) Action Plans
At the end of the programme, each participant presented an Action Plan based on theabovementioned lectures, individual presentations and group workshops. They identified thechallenges in their countries and proposed possible solutions based on what they learned fromthe lectures, presentations by the other participants and discussions in the group workshops. It
was obvious from the Action Plans presented by the participants that everyone remarkably
enhanced their understanding on juvenile justice and related issues and was eager to put theirplans into practice in their countries.
5. Feedback from the Participants
We received a lot of positive feedback from the participants. They commented that all thelectures, group workshops and interactions with lecturers and participants were very useful.
Relevant materials provided prior to and during the programme (UN documents, research
articles, publications and videos) were also highly evaluated. Several participants commented
that observation visits to facilities and agencies in Japan would have contributed to enhancetheir understanding further.
6. Comments from the Programming Officer
In light of the plasticity of juveniles and young adults, the timely and appropriate
intervention to help and protect juveniles in conflict with the law and young adult offenders
is a critical issue for the entire world. In addition, as a problem that has emerged throughlectures and the group workshops, it is also necessary to provide support to their families andto include the whole community in taking comprehensive approaches. This is because thesound development of juveniles and young people is hindered by inappropriate environments,
poverty, and organized crime and violent extremism.
Throughout the training period, the participants enthusiastically and actively participatedin all the sessions. The final Action Plans were creative presentations from a wide viewpointsuch as approaches to the local community and the importance of capacity-building of staff.
All the presentations were very meaningful and substantial. I am sure that the participants will
make the most of what they have learned from the programme. Despite the inability to meetin person, it was worth providing the opportunity to learn from each other online.
