The creation of the Security and Justice Evidence Platform was possible thanks to the work of a network of IDB specialists and experts from the region and the world.

The initiative was led by Rodrigo Serrano-Berthet, together with a team formed by Alberto Kopittke, Fernando Cafferata, Gonzalo Croci, Rodrigo Pantoja and Sergio Britto Lima.

A long list of people and institutions contributed in many ways to make it a reality, either by helping to conceive the initiative, providing institutional support, financial resources, contributing texts or videos, peer review, quality control, etc.
