Partnership
english
Partnership refers to a process of working jointly together to develop prevention strategies. This usually includes authorities and
institutions directly involved in prevention, along with other state services, non government organizations, and especially, local
citizens and the private sector. Thus municipal authorities, police, justice and education institutions, public or semi public services,
such as public transport companies, social housing organizations, local resident associations, and neighbourhood businesses and
commercial outlets that play an important economic role in the community, may all be involved.
