Abstract
In this chapter, we outline an approach to preventing prison violence that is informed by the other chapters in this book. We adopt a broad public health approach to prevention based on the identification of risk factors and an understanding of why prison violence occurs before discussing the importance of returning “data to source” and partnering with key stakeholders to identify prevention initiatives that are likely to work in the specific setting or context under consideration. The chapter concludes with a discussion about some of the challenges faced by those seeking to implement violence prevention initiatives in prisons.
