The mission of the Hub for Evidence-Based Research in Criminology and Policing is to serve as a national and international hub for evidence-based research, dissemination, and impact within the fields of Criminology and Policing. With strong interdisciplinary ties to other subjects and institutions, we are dedicated to advancing knowledge and fostering collaboration to enhance our research environment, and improving the intensity, reach, and impact of our research and innovation outputs.
The group focuses on the production of high-impact, evidence-based research deeply rooted in policing and criminology. By leveraging our extensive network of government, community, and academic partners, we support the delivery of meaningful research, evaluations, and impact-focused studies. The group is committed to nurturing a supportive research culture. We work with our staff to build research careers and enhance the output of our growing criminology and policing team.
