Pilot project on the implementation of alternative measures: the Revised Community Assessment and Placement model in Cyprus

Led by the Cyprus Refugee Council, this project explores an alternative to detention based on the Community Assessment and Placement (CAP) model of the International Detention Coalition (IDC), building on research conducted in the context of a previous EPIM-supported project in Cyprus. Case management services are offered to 60 individuals in the process of two years. Additionally, the project puts particular emphasis on the promotion of the use of vulnerability screening tools by Cypriot authorities and frontline decision-makers in order to prevent the use of detention for vulnerable groups.
