We tackle real-world challenges to guide professionals and policymakers across local, national, and global scales. Our strong collaborations with government agencies and other institutions focus on enhancing crime prevention and public safety. Researchers in this criminology field have expanded the conventional scope of study beyond national justice systems, examining how global, regional, and local factors impact crime patterns and control methods in our interconnected world.
