SUMMARY:Alternatives to Incarceration in Latin America and the Caribbean
DESCRIPTION:Drug laws and the region’s untenable prison crisis are at the center of the drug policy debate in Latin America and the Caribbean. The incarceration of low-level drug offenders for exceptionally long sentences has left the region’s prisons bursting at the seams; the impact is not only felt by those incarcerated\, but also by their families and communities. Cutting edge research by the Colectivo de Estudios Drogas y Derecho (Research Consortium on Drugs and the Law\, CEDD) and the Social Science Research Council (SSRC) sheds new light on the problem and efforts to address it through alternatives to incarceration. \nThe latest investigation carried out by CEDD\, which brings together researchers from 9 Latin American countries\, shows that despite the lively debate taking place across the region\, the number of people incarcerated for drug offenses continues to grow. The SSRC’s Drugs\, Security and Democracy (DSD) Program is carrying out an investigation on drug courts in Latin America and the Caribbean. The research to date offers an analysis and critique of drug courts as a public policy option that is increasingly under consideration by Latin American and Caribbean countries\, and the lessons to be learned from the U.S. experience. The session will conclude with a discussion of other alternatives to incarceration\, including measures taken prior to the initiation of a criminal proceeding.

SUMMARY:The SSRC Supports the National Vietnam Encyclopedia Project to Gain Experience from US Encyclopedia Projects
DESCRIPTION:The Atlantic Fellows for Health Equity in Southeast Asia\, one of four Atlantic Fellows programs that have partnered with the SSRC for strategic learning and assessment and developmental support\, recently graduated 18 fellows from 9 ASEAN countries and China at the fellowship’s second Annual Forum in Hua Hin\, Thailand. Throughout the six module induction year program\, the fellows have developed their leadership capabilities and tackled issues related to health equity and its social determinants both within and beyond national borders. After graduation\, they returned to their home countries to begin working on collaborative projects geared toward addressing health inequities at home and across the region\, particularly among vulnerable and marginalized populations. \n \nMary McDonnell guided graduating fellows through instructions for the SSRC’s end-of-program reflection.\nAs a part of ongoing evaluations and continual feedback provided to the Program\, Vietnam Program Staff (Mary McDonnell and Van Tran) participated in the Annual Forum to engage fellows in final program reflections and to take part in the graduation ceremony. Mary McDonnell led fellows through a word cloud exercise aimed at capturing change in words that reflect how fellows thought of leadership and their core values before and after participating in the fellowship induction year. Through the in-depth written reflection exercise\, fellows provided key insights into successful components of the program experience\, identified areas for improvement\, and illustrated the changes they have seen in their thinking about leadership for health equity and the actions they have taken to advance equity as a result of participating in the Program.
