Other countries

UNODC promotes, biennially, a survey with UN Member States to gather data on crime and criminal justice - the United Nations Survey on Crime Trends and the Operations of Criminal Justice Systems (UN-CTS), which is available on UNODC headquarters' website, with data from the 1990 decade.

From this survey, UNODC also publishes a compilation of data on homicide for the countries that respond to the CTS.

For countries that did not respond to the CTS, the suggestion is to search directly at each country's justice agencies website. The most common names used by countries for their agencies are:

•    Justice Ministry/Department or Ministry/Department of Justice ( Ministério da Justiça - in Portuguese - and Ministerio/Secretaría de Justicia - in Spanish).

•    Interior Ministry or Ministry of Interior ( Ministério do Interior - in Portuguese - and Ministerio del Interior - in Spanish).
