dc.description.abstractThis report analyzes the dynamics of violent crime in Brazil. What factors are driving the overall crime decline in Brazil? Why is violent crime declining in some states while it is increasing in others? What types of interventions could help to reduce youth violence? These are the questions that motivate this report. Understanding what has gone right to bring crime down during the past 10 years is crucial to tackling the challenges posed by the new decade. The purpose of this report is to enhance that understanding. To do so, we examine the determinants of the crime shift at the national level, review the experience of the high-performing states, and generate new evidence on the impact of education policies on youth violence prevention. This report is organized in four chapters. Chapter one sets the stage for the issues covered in the report. Chapter two estimates the correlation of the change in crime in Brazil and across regions and states. Chapter three reviews the evidence on the policies implemented to reduce crime and violence in Sao Paulo, Minas Gerais, and Rio de Janeiro. Chapter four presents findings on the impact of school enrollment on youth crime and violence prevention. The last section summarizes key lessons.en
