In this talk Professor Andy Newton reveals some of his insights from 20 years research into crime and place. Andy will draw from his work on examining patterns of crime on the public transport network, on understanding acquisitive crime, and exploring violence in public places. He will also reflect on some of the obstacles for academics when collaborating with police forces, community safety partners, the voluntary sector, and local and national government - acknowledging this is a two-way issue! Andy will discuss recent efforts to develop toolkits to better inform policy makers decisions about place-based approach to crime prevention and also reflect on the need to bring local communities into this process. Indeed, if we are going to take a place-based approach to crime reduction – then how can we try and make this more sustainable?
