This booklet summarizes the main findings and recommendations of the Human Development Report for Central America 2009-2010 (hereafter the HDRCA) commissioned by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP). The report examined the trends, roots, and possible solutions to the problem of citizen insecurity in Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama –the seven countries in continental Central America. “Citizen Security” was understood as “the protection of all persons against the risk of suffering a violent or a predatory crime”.
