To assess the effectiveness of USAID’s community-based crime and violence prevention programs in Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Panama, Vanderbilt University’s Latin American Public Opinion Project launched a three-year impact evaluation.
The randomized control trial compared at-risk neighborhoods with USAID’s prevention programs to similar neighborhoods without a USAID or other donor presence. The evaluation comprehensively gauged perceptions over time of crime victimization and citizen security.
Through the Central America Regional Security Initiative (CARSI), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) builds resilience to insecurity in high-crime, urban communities by improving access to public services, jobs, and justice.
