IDLO IN MEXICO
Mexico has made significant efforts to modernize its justice and security system, and to strengthen the rule of law. Through constitutional reforms, institutional and regulatory changes, two processes have been developed to advance this objective. The first process is the transition from an inquisitorial to an accusatory system of justice that began with the 2008 Constitutional reform. The second is the implementation of the National Public Security System (SNSP). Both initiatives have deep implications at the federal, state and municipal levels, as they work to redesign the institutional architecture, rules, procedures, and methods, and also aim to change institutional culture and public expectations.
IDLO is committed and engaged with Mexican institutions to support the rule of law in Mexico by strengthening the capacity of police institutions in Mexico as they apply the police professionalization process as part of the country’s criminal justice system reform.
The project will focus on capacity development in three areas. First, there will be initial training for preventive police at the municipal level under the Professionalization Framework Program (PRP) and certification process to improve their competence and professionalism. Next, the project will enhance the knowledge and skills of first responders to improve their performance in the criminal process and therefore the quality of criminal justice. The third area will address the capacity of procedural police to consolidate the units at the state level to ensure adequate implementation of the criminal justice system.
