OUR VISION AND GOALS
International Police Science Association IPSA is shaping a necessary radical reformation of the role of science in policing to enable policing to become an arena of evidence-based policies.
Advancing science in policing is essential if Global Police are to retain public support and legitimacy, cope with necessary budget reductions, and if the policing industry is to alleviate the problems that have become a part of the policing task.
The new perspective in policing changes the relationship between science and policing. It demands that the police adopt and advance evidence-based policy and that universities become active participants in the everyday world of police practice. Having the police take ownership of police science will improve policing and ensure its survival in a competitive world of the provision of public services.
IPSA STRATEGIC GOALS:
- Management of security knowledge through the translation of police science-related research into various languages.
- Dissemination of police culture through continuous training and development of programmes across leadership levels.
