Examples of good practices regarding the prevention of children
detention, the reduction of the number of children who are deprived from
freedom within the administration of justice or the reduction of the detention
period:
• projects were undertaken in the General Inspectorate of Romanian Police
to prevent juvenile delinquency on the following topics: prevention of academic

prevention of criminality in minors with parents who are abroad, correcting antisocial
