Join us for this evening seminar on Intelligence-Led Policing (ILP), a proactive approach that leverages data analysis and intelligence to prevent crime and enhance public safety. It is proactive because it enables police to not just react to crime but also anticipate it and the need for police interventions. It leverages data and intelligence by analysing patterns, pinpointing high-risk areas, and identifying known offenders. Though it is not without criticism, with legitimate questions about amongst others privacy, potentially biased data and accountability, it represents a way for police resources to be allocated in a more effective way.
The study evening will explore the core principles of ILP and its role in modern law enforcement. After an initial introduction, expert guests will discuss best practices and real-world case studies in the quickly evolving landscape of crime and policing. We welcome in particular the input from the research group on Intelligence in Policing from the Norwegian Police University College. For this study evening, they will focus on Crime as a service and discuss how agencies can effectively deal with crime as a service especially with the rise of state actors’ involvement.
