Recent events across Europe have once again put reoffending at the heart of the debate on crime and prevention.

Efus is currently leading a Grundtvig European project, FALPREV, aimed at training local stakeholders to work in partnership to prepare for the release of prisoners and their reintegration into the city.

This project is in its final phase with the development of exciting tools. A training tool kit will be downloadable at the beginning of February 2012 and will feature an analysis of 24 training sessions that have been taking place across Europe between 2010 and 2012 within the FALPREV project. Also due in February, an E-learning plateform, with part of its content available to all, will bring together 12 short videos and much more illustrating local practices in a 2 hour module.
