    Sexual violence can occur with people of all genders, sexual orientations, and age groups. The current study was carried out for building of prevention tools for checking sexual violence in family, schools and communities of Thailand via a mixed research design. The study aimed to investigate understanding of sexual violence and participantsÕ opinions toward making prevention tools of sexual violence in family, school and community. The quantitative stage employed a questionnaire to collect data from parents and/or guardians, school administrators and teachers at the secondary school, and community leaders and other individuals in the community. The sample size for the quantitative step was 2,420 participants while the qualitative step was conducted with 30 informants through Focus group discussion. These 30 key informants included police officers, public prosecutors, judges, correctional officers, officers from juvenile detention center, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Public Health, and governing officers from the Department of Provincial Administration, mass communication specialist and legal specialists. The results revealed that creating prevention tool for sexual violence needed cooperation among family, educational institution and community. In a family, parents or guardians should act as good role model and not demonstrate any inappropriate behavior that could stimulate a sexual assault. At schools, safety measures should be established and students should be educated on self-prevention from becoming victims of crime. In the community, people must help each other to monitor the population and create a safe environment to reduce crime. © 2023 International Journal of Criminal Justice Sciences.

    This research aimed to investigate the models and purposes of funds to support ex-life offenders after release in foreign countries, develop practicable guidelines for establishing funds to assist or support the ex-life offenders in Thailand, and implement a time-sensitive road map to propel funds. This was qualitative research conducted by searching academic documents for data, reviewing and analyzing features or situations, problems, difficulties, key success factors of aid funds provided in Thailand, and concepts for establishing funds to support the ex-post-release offender's life in Thailand and abroad. The in-depth interview was conducted with one hundred individuals. The focus group consisted of 54 participants. Two seminars were held to solicit feedback and disseminate model proposals or feasible parameters for establishing funds to aid or support life after release. The findings indicated that feasible guidelines for establishing funds to assist or support the ex-life offenders after release in Thailand were intended to enable ex-offenders to reenter society and not re-offend by assisting according to an urgent road map for both adult and juvenile offenders of the Department of Corrections, Department of Juvenile Observation and Protection, and Department of Probation. Moreover, the long-term fund was formed by the draft Royal Decree on establishing the office of fund management for supporting the ex-life offender after release (a public body with direct authority and responsibility) © 2021 International Journal of Criminal Justice Sciences.

    (Institute for Development and International Relations, 2022) Weriphan Srithep; Suppakorn Poonyarith; Sunee Kanyajit; Veenunkarn Rujipark; Apasiri Suwannanon
    This research aimed to examine a non-violent approach to settling the conflict in Thailand's southern region. Taking Home Project was chosen to analyse issues and challenges to design policies, strategies, tactics, processes, and guidelines for improving operational efficiency. This was qualitative research in which data were gathered through in-depth interviews with 17 samples from main agencies and supporting agencies at the administrative and operational levels and from the people sector in specific places. The findings suggested that the Taking Home Project adhered to the concept of nonviolence and national security policy. They lacked effectiveness and efficiency, however, due to the following issues: 1) execution of the policy 2) a personnel shortage 3) a lack of engagement on the part of supporting agencies and the private sector; and 4) the fund was spent largely, but the outcome's cost-effectiveness cannot be quantified. Additionally, the Taking Home Project encountered obstacles and difficulties resulting from the dispute in the historical component of secession, religious and cultural divides, and communication to foster understanding. The study concluded that the government should strengthen the project's employees and promote good governance in its management. Collaboration between the public and private sectors and the community will be bolstered. © 2022, Institute for Development and International Relations. All rights reserved.
