Which is NOT a method for preventing victimization?

Enhancing physical security is an established strategy for preventing victimization. This method focuses on improving the security infrastructure of a location through measures such as surveillance systems, locks, lighting, and controlled access points. By making an environment less accessible or harder to exploit, potential threats are deterred, thus contributing to the prevention of victimization.

On the contrary, preventing criminalization, increasing staff training, and implementing community awareness are more directly related to addressing the behaviors and actions that lead to victimization and empowering individuals rather than improving physical barriers. Therefore, the correct answer points to the method that does not primarily relate to the active measures of combating criminal actions through physical enhancement.
