Our mission

Founded in the United Kingdom in 2012, we are an independent charity dedicated to embedding evidence-based approaches in policing.

​

Membership of the society is open to anyone who is committed to making a positive impact in the community through the use of evidence-based approaches.

 

We have three core aims:

​​

1. Promote the use of best available research evidence to solve policing problems

2. Support the production of new research evidence by police practitioners and researchers

3. Lead the communication of research evidence to police practitioners and the public
