Throughout history, human beings have always sought to safeguard the values ​​that guarantee the continuation of their lives and provide for their security and freedom by adopting various measures, such as criminalization and punishment and generally responding. Adoption of these measures gradually created a scientific trend in criminal policy in response to crime. Criminal policy, as a set of methods used by the state and society to prevent and control criminal phenomena, reflects the attitude of any government system to crime, criminality and punishment and somehow reflects the ideology that governs the elements of society. Criminal policy societies seek to regulate and respond to criminal phenomena and to control crime in society.

Gradually, however, in the wake of economic, social, political and cultural developments, the development of various criminal sciences, in particular criminology, the increasing importance of human rights, as well as the failure of current criminal policy programs and practices in crime control, in particular crime prevention and repetition. It has developed a new approach called participatory criminal policy, which is based on the participation of the public and the key pillars of the criminal process, namely the delinquent and the delinquent in response to the criminal phenomenon.

Influenced by developments in the criminal sciences, the development of the concept of human rights, and inspired by religious and jurisprudential principles, our legislator has also pointed to numerous examples of participatory criminal policy in criminal procedure law. Success in the field of public participation in the field of criminal justice is subject to preconditions such as structural changes in the political, economic, social and cultural system of society and a proper understanding and understanding of the foundations and effects of participatory criminal policy. Today, the participation of non-governmental organizations is one of the best factors in running the country in economic, social and cultural aspects. This participation in the legal system can play an important role in the efficiency and building of public trust

The new Code of Criminal Procedure recognizes the pursuit of public prosecutions in a specific class of crimes by these organizations, with the aim of accomplishing participatory purposes. Participatory criminal policy reflects the role and position of people and social and non-governmental institutions in the criminal process. In this approach, the institution of criminal justice is no longer the sole source of accountability and conflict resolution, but also the capacity of public and community institutions in this field. With the participation of the public in the criminal process, we will see respect for the will of the people, resulting in increased public confidence in the criminal justice system and reduced crime.
