Crime and Justice Group receives funding from NPIA

The Campbell Collaboration Crime and Justice Group (CCJG) is delighted to announce the receipt of a grant of $420,000 (£297,000) from the UK’s National Policing Improvement Agency (NPIA), led by CCJG Committee member Peter Neyroud.

The funding has been provided to produce four systematic reviews and two exploratory reviews on policing-related topics by June 2010. The review topics will be agreed upon by CCJG and NPIA. In addition, the funding will provide assistance for review teams to present their findings, possibly at a mini-conference organized by NPIA.

The Crime and Justice Group is extremely grateful to NPIA and Peter Neyroud for this generous award, which will facilitate the expansion of the Campbell Collaboration library and make an important contribution to knowledge in evidence-based policing.
