CONT

Alternative development is an approach aimed at reducing the vulnerabilities that lead to involvement in illicit crop cultivation and ultimately eliminating such cultivation. Alternative development can break the vicious cycle of rising illicit drug production, weakening rule of law, decreasing growth of the licit economy, decreasing investment in licit sectors, strengthening organized crime and increasing violence by effectively promoting factors fostering a sustainable licit economy.

Le développement alternatif est une approche visant à réduire les vulnérabilités qui conduisent à se lancer dans les cultures illicites et à terme à éliminer ces cultures.

Criminalité forcée. Les victimes sont obligées de commettre des délits contre leur gré, pour le bénéfice d'une autre personne. Les exploiteurs contrôlent leurs victimes par la violence, les mensonges, ou les dettes à rembourser, et les obligent à commettre des actes illégaux. Ce type d'exploitation se produit entre autres dans les gangs de jeunes des grandes villes.
