Head of the Strategic Management Department at the Guyana Prison Service, Rae-Dawn Corbin, has returned home from a successful training course at the United Nations Asia and Far East Institute for the Prevention of Crime and the Treatment of Offenders (UNAFEI), stated a release on Thursday from the Guyana Prison Service.
UNAFEI is a United Nations-affiliated institute that provides training and capacity-building programs for criminal justice professionals worldwide. The institute’s mission is to contribute to the prevention of crime and the treatment of offenders through education, research, and international cooperation.
It explained that the course – the 185th – was organised under the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA)’s Knowledge Co-Creation Program, and brought together 19 participants from across Asia, Africa, the Pacific Islands, and South America (Guyana), to learn about best practices in preventing inmate abuse and corruption and fostering a rehabilitative environment.
