Our experience and expertise extends across the criminal justice sector, with quantitative and qualitative research skills and multi-disciplinary training in areas like anthropology, criminology, education, law, politics, and sociology.
In addition to conducting academic research and teaching, we provide consultancy or advisory services to agencies engaged in the areas of criminal justice and anti-corruption at state, national and international levels.
Many of our members are experienced in providing timely expert commentary for television, radio, online and print media and we welcome media enquiries on issues of justice and criminology.
