Dear all,
The International Detention Coalition (IDC) has launched new research:
There are Alternatives: A handbook on preventing unnecessary immigration
detention
The handbook is based on two years of research in partnership with La
Trobe University, Australia and found humane and cost effective
mechanisms that prevent unnecessary and damaging immigration detention.
The five-step Community Assessment and Placement (CAP) model outlines
mechanisms and examples from around the world that prevent unnecessary
detention, implement immigration law through mechanisms that do not rely
heavily on detention, and effectively support individuals in the community.
The IDC launched the handbook at the UN level in Geneva on May 13th
2011. Launches in all regions will follow later this year:
