Funded Activity Summary
Multi-Site Trials of Third Party Policing: Building the Scientific Capacity for Experimental Criminology and Evidence-Based Social Policy in Australia. The estimated cost of crime in Australia is $36 billion with $6.9 billion spent on police services each year. This project will fund a series of field experiments testing the effectiveness of Third Party Policing: a promising, new policing approach that involves police partnering with communities, businesses and other government agencies to use regulations and civil laws to better control crime. The research will strengthen Australia's social and economic fabric, grow Australia's capacity to conduct multi-site, multi-country field trials, institutionalise the use of scientific experimental evidence to guide crime control policies, and help safeguard and protect Australia from terrorism and crime.Funded Activity Details
