Efus is a longstanding international partner of the German Congress on Crime Prevention, which was founded in 1995 as a yearly national convention on crime prevention. Its aim is to present and strengthen crime prevention within a broad societal framework in order to contribute to reducing crime and the number of victims, but also the fear of crime.
