Liverpool Centre for Advanced Policing Studies (LCAPS)

Description

Liverpool Centre for Advanced Policing Studies’ research agenda is themed around a number of dynamic research clusters which reflect the primary and secondary interests of the Centre's staff.

Current research activities are themed around the following research clusters:

• Serious and organised crime
• Evidence-based policing and practice
• Intelligence analysis
• Counter-terrorism
• Domestic violence

These research clusters enable researchers to engage in the co-creation of knowledge alongside industry stakeholders. They do this by addressing contemporary issues within policing and broader human security domains. In addition to this, their research initiatives and aspirations enable them to play a strong role in the Research Exercise Framework.

The Centre draws expertise on a number of disciplines, including Policing studies, Criminal justice, Criminology, Law and Psychology.

It also carries out work within the following research areas:

• Serious and organised crime
• Intelligence analysis
• Domestic violence
• Evidence-based policing
• Human trafficking
• Counter-terrorism

In bringing together leading researchers from these fields, the Centre produces sector-leading research that addresses the needs of modern policing, law enforcement and security.
