The project will divert low-risk, first-time offenders to probation and community service, allowing Tunisia to focus its limited resources on high-threat criminals. Building upon previous INL support and Ministry of Justice buy in, this project will work to expand probation services to all 24 governorates through establishing probation offices in the last remaining four governorates and standardizing services nationwide; deliver training to criminal justice sector actors and community stakeholders; increase public awareness of the benefits of community service and probation for low-risk individuals; and standardize procedures, including through the use of information technology, to streamline the process.
