The International Crime and Intelligence Analysis Conference 2012
13-14 December 2012 Manchester, England.
Venue: Manchester Central Conference Centre, M2 3GX
Crime analysis, intelligence analysis, problem solving, intelligence-led policing, crime mapping, problem-oriented partnerships, crime prevention, criminal investigation
The UCL Jill Dando Institute of Security and Crime Science will be hosting the 2012 International Crime and Intelligence Analysis Conference in Manchester, England on the 13th and 14th December. The call for abstracts will be announced by the end of May 2012.
The conference is THE event for intelligence professionals, community safety officers, investigators, and researchers interested in intelligence-led policing, problem solving, partnership working, crime prevention, and the analysis that underpins decision making. The conference will appeal to practitioners and academics, albeit with all content directed at practical means for improving policing and public safety.
The conference is primarily a training event through the many classes that will be on offer; an opportunity to learn from good practice from the presentation of real world cases, applications and problem solving; from the latest research that has a very strong operationally applied focus; and from key leaders who are innovating new ways for delivering policing and community safety services in difficult economic times.
The programme for the 2012 conference will include:
- Keynotes on some of the latest topics, highlighting the importance of analysis for decision-making in law enforcement, policing and community safety
- Seminar streams: these are chosen from submissions to our call for abstracts. Presentations will be on effective, innovative and evidenced ways of reducing crime and improving public safety, and new areas of crime and intelligence analysis research
- Technical workshops and classes: these provide for a more interactive learning opportunity for delegates.
