Institute for Crime & Justice Policy Research (original) (raw)

The overarching aims of ICPR’s work are to produce and disseminate knowledge about justice, and thereby to inform public and political debate, and to contribute to improvements in policy and practice. All ICPR’s research is informed by concerns with justice, fairness and human rights. The audiences for ICPR’s research include policy-makers, academics, civil society organisations, justice practitioners, and the wider public. ICPR’s current research is focused on three thematic priorities:

• policing and the policed
• courts, court users and the judicial process
• prisons and the use of imprisonment
