The ACPF obtained General Consultative Status to the United Nations in 2000, and participated in Kyoto Crime Congress in 2021 (The 14th United Nations Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice).
The ACPF contribution is available here and Facebook.
In 2022, we will celebrate the 40th anniversary of our founding.
