NTU Hate Crime Research Group

Description

Set up in September 2023, the Hate Crime Research Group aims to contribute to academic knowledge on hate crime, and inform policy and practice in order to tackle the problem of hate crime. The group provides a forum for NTU academics, researchers, ECRs and PGR students who work in diverse disciplines such as criminology, law, sociology, psychology, education, politics and international relations to share information about hate crime, with a view to developing critical analysis and debate, and offer opportunities for collaboration. The group promotes knowledge exchange activities with policy makers and practitioners in order to inform policy and practice on hate crime.

The aims of the Hate Crime Research Group include:

The Hate Crime Research Group brings together NTU academics, researchers, ECRs and PGR students to discuss research, develop research ideas and facilitate collaboration on hate crime. Specifically, the group focuses on examining the causes, consequences and responses to hate crime both nationally and internationally. Correspondingly, the Hate Crime Research Group has two key aims: advance understanding of hate crime and promote knowledge exchange:

Aim 1: Advance understanding of hate crime by producing and disseminating theoretical and evidence-led research.

Aim 2: Knowledge exchange with policy makers, practitioners and diverse communities.
