Preliminary scope of work
Public security in Brazil has been fundamentally flawed since its establishment in the federal constitution of 1988. The current structure fails to foster collaboration among essential stakeholders, particularly local law enforcement agencies. This disunity significantly benefits criminals, enabling them to establish robust and effective networks both locally and internationally. Despite substantial efforts by police forces, the state of Rio de Janeiro, renowned as Brazil’s postcard, has experienced significant deterioration over the past decades. It is evident that police alone cannot uphold public order to desirable standards. Ensuring public security requires a collaborative approach involving multiple sectors, including civil society and international partners. This dissertation examines the multifaceted challenges of countering transnational organized crime (TOC), using Rio de Janeiro as a case study. It critically analyzes existing security policies and discusses strategic proposals aimed at improving the current public security framework. Emphasizing the necessity for governments to prioritize innovative governance measures, the study advocates for a comprehensive and integrated approach to combat TOC effectively and create safer, more resilient communities.
