What methods and expertise can policing utilise from evaluation programmes in education and health?

Background

"Crime prevention is the ability to understand and respond to drivers and inhibitors of crime, including crowd management, public trust, mental health and wellbeing.

Policing are interested in identifying both where further testing of crime prevention initiatives is needed and where initiatives may be having disproportionate impacts that are biased or discriminatory. Furthermore, policing are interested in crime prevention approaches that consider the breadth of public services and, in doing so, help root policing’s role in public health responses."

Next steps

"We welcome your engagement with our ARIs in the following ways:
• If you have evidence that completely or partly supports or answers one of our ARIs, we invite you to share that with us. For any ongoing research relevant to policing and crime reduction, we encourage you to register your research on the College of Policing’s research projects map, which has been designed to promote collaboration and support requests for participants.
• If you are, or plan to be, carrying out research that relates to one of our ARIs, we’d like to hear about it. While we cannot respond to speculative approaches for research funding, we will where possible act to support your ambitions, including finding you policing partners where possible.
• If you are submitting a funding or grant application that aligns with one of our ARIs, we hope that referencing policing’s ARIs will help to strengthen your case for the possible public impact of the research.
• We will use the ARI document to structure our academic engagement, prioritise events and build new connections with external partners. We will be using our ARIs in our engagement with UKRI, and we will publish any opportunities for funding via our website https://science.police.uk/
Please send any correspondence and questions to csa@npcc.police.uk, including ‘ARI’ in the subject heading."
