Responding to Violent Assaults Against Police (Old ID 22949)
Role
Chief Investigator
Description
The proposed research is a collaboration between Queensland Police Services (QPS) and James Cook university and will lead to a sustainable and mutually beneficial relationship due to the Chief Investigators role as the invited JCU representative on the newly formed Community Policing Board which was introduced by the state government this year. The purpose of the Community Policing board is to foster partnerships between the major community groups and QPS in order to identify community based strategies to combat crimes which threaten the property and personal safety of local citizens. This is an opportune initiative considering that Townsville currently has the highest levels of youth crime in the state.
