Youth gangs pose a global challenge, often linked to violence, demanding urgent interventions. This study, using the Delphi method with 27 experts, aims to create a checklist of good practices for public policies on legalizing and pacifying street youth groups (SYG). Results provide a consensus across seven areas, offering essential guidelines to design and evaluate policies. These focus on preventing violence, reducing illicit activities, and promoting social inclusion, fostering a culture of peace through effective, impactful measures
