Welcome to the IPSA website

Founded in 2013, International Police Science Association (IPSA) is a Global non-profit organisation specializing in police science and practices.

IPSA aims to strengthen the channels of communication between the police academics and researchers across fields of police sciences to develop the exchange of knowledge.

The purpose of our carefully designed programs across quality & excellence in policing is to improve the delivery of public safety services, we aim to do this through maintaining a body of standards developed by public safety practitioners covering a wide range of up-to-date public safety initiatives and by establishing and administering an accreditation process. We value our peers and recognize professional excellence in our journals and awards.

MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER

Since the inception of the International Police Science Association, my primary objective has been to foster global scientific endeavors in the realm of police science and enhance communication channels among police intellectuals and researchers from various branches and fields of police science, as well as other scientific domains.

Our aim is to cultivate a vibrant exchange of ideas, academic expertise, and practical experiences. We encourage police professionals and intellectuals across disciplines to establish an independent knowledge base and leverage both natural and human sources of knowledge relevant to police sciences. By doing so, we can achieve a harmonious integration of their diverse strengths, facilitating the exchange of experiences and opinions that will contribute to the development of policy sciences.

My personal interest in the foundation of police sciences dates back to my time as a student at the police academy. This passion only grew stronger during my tenure as a police officer in the Egyptian police. Through practical experience, I came to realize the stark contrast between faltering and confused police sciences, caught between experience and abstract theory, and the potential of a disciplined police practice grounded in scientific principles.

Despite the emergence of specialized police sciences, distinct from criminal justice sciences, the police world community has only recently begun to focus on them towards the end of the twentieth century. However, these sciences remain relatively unknown in many countries worldwide. Therefore, the concept of establishing an association that brings together thinkers, researchers, and experts dedicated to police sciences is paramount. Such an association will provide a platform for them to showcase and publish their experiences, research findings, ideas, and practical approaches, ultimately driving the progression and solidification of police sciences as we envision.

We empower our members through sharing experiences and ideas on the development of police sciences through conferences, training, workshops and consultancy. Membership of the association reflects the diversity involved in the field, including law enforcement, academics, judges, policymakers and practitioners, and experts.
