Abstract This paper is a theoretical reflection resulting from a review of the theoretical and methodological assumptions lying in Crime Prevention and Human Rights Promotion Programs. This paper evolves from assumptions of social psychology, which has identified some psychological variables that explain group dynamics. Such variables are key to implementing prevention programs intended to change and/or modify behaviors. This paper proposes some psychological guidelines that must be taken into account when designing Crime and Human Rights Prevention Programs, so as to have an impact on target population.

Palabras clave : crime prevention; human rights protection; social psychology; psychological theories; social representation.
