【SDG 16】A stronger social safety net for a safer environment
2021-11-11
New Taipei City has achieved its short-term targets of crime rate year-by-year from 1,091.35 cases per 100,000 people in 2018 to 866.77 cases per 100,000 people in 2020, through the effort of its police force. The clearance rate also saw improvement from 95.36% in 2018 to 96.71% in 2020. New Taipei City has been committed to maintaining social order and protecting its citizens. It also strives to protect vulnerable families through the implementation of an integrated interdepartmental safety net for high-risk groups across all ages. Social Welfare Department provides multiple types of assistance for families through social workers and social welfare agencies, and the Indigenous People’s Department organizes violence prevention courses (e.g., awareness of violence patterns, violence-prevention network, and resources for professional services) to train anti-violence gatekeepers on the integration of anti-domestic violence principles into tribal and community culture. These measures ensure the early detection of domestic violence and establish basic defense mechanisms in communities to prevent the effects of harmful behavior from spreading.
