Our Vision: Understanding, anticipating, and preventing crime and harm to shape safer futures
Our purpose is to generate evidence that helps to understand and anticipate crime and related harms, identify what could make a difference, and translate that knowledge into effective policy and practice. Our research is locally grounded, globally relevant, rigorous, and focused on achieving tangible real-world impact.
We achieve this through:
Partnership - working across disciplines, sectors and communities to understand problems and develop context-sensitive responses. - Evidence into action - producing, testing and translating evidence to identify what works, for whom, in what contexts.
- Capability building - through education, professional training, and mentoring.
