On May 10 2018, Academy of Justice with the support of UNICEF within its Continuous Training program conducted a training on Diversion measures.

Purpose of this training was to enhance the participant’s knowledge through discussions and presentation of best practices that increase professional capacities for cases when imposing diversion measures.

The training was conducted with the purpose of defining the conditions for imposing diversity measures, assessing appropriate measures for specific situations, and identifying to whom and for what actions these measures could be imposed.

This training elaborated on national legislation with emphasis on the Juvenile Justice Code, which highlighted the deficiencies and problems in practical implementation of diversion measures.

In this context, it was discussed about consent of the minor for imposition of the diversion measure, presence of the minor, parent and defense in the hearing for imposing diversion measure and bringing decision for imposing diversion measures.
