Presentation Transcript

  1. Origins, impacts and critical reflections Professor Nick Fyfe SIPR Director.

  2. Origins: context and rationale of SIPR • Demand-driven: Initiated by research ‘users’ rather than research ‘providers’…. • The need for applied policing research and to understand ‘policing in Scotland’ and ‘Scottish policing’ in an international context… • Improving knowledge exchange, integration and mobilization to facilitate evidence-based contributions to policing policy and practice …

  3. Board of Governance International Advisory Committee Executive Committee Director Associate Directors (3) ACPOS/SPSA Scottish Funding Council Police-Community Relations Associate Director Chief Police Officer Steering Group Evidence & Investigation Associate Director Senior SPSA official Steering Group Police Organization Associate Director Chief Police Officer Steering Group

  4. Reshaping the research landscape….from 2005…. • Some high-quality police-focused research but research is fragmented and scattered; relations between the academic community and Scottish police forces are ‘ad hoc and infrequent’; and the extent to which ‘research results is being fed directly into practice by its originators is negligible’. (Professor Carol Heddermanm University of Leicester)

  5. To 2013…. • The future of policing will be tied directly to the establishment of effective collaborative partnerships that span across multiple universities and police agencies. The SIPR in Scotland [is a ] promising model that will facilitate incremental changes in police practices based on research’ (Engel and Henderson, 2013)

  6. 6 I’s : The drivers of change… • Infra-structure… • Investment… • Innovation…. • Interdisciplinary … • Internationality… • Impact …

  7. Board of Governance International Advisory Committee Executive Committee Chief Police Officers and Academics Police-Community Relations Evidence & Investigation Police Organization, Leadership & Management Infra-structure

  8. Why this shared infra-structure matters…. • A framework for routine and sustained interaction; • Builds a culture of engagement and acommitment to co-production; • Engages high level champions and enthusiasts. • Develops social capital (trust/networks/reciprocity) • Focuses on programmes as well as projects

  9. Investment…. Phase I Investment Strategy (SFC & ACPOS) • Infrastructure & leadership • New academic staff appointments; • Post-doctoral and PhD researchers engaged in collaborative research; • Knowledge Exchange Manager and Knowledge Exchange Programme; • Practitioner Fellowships; Phase II Investment Strategy (ACPOS & HEIs) • Infrastructure & leadership • Alignment of SIPR research funding with priorities in Strategic Policing Assessment • IMPAKT programme • Small grants competition • Continuation of KE and Practitioner Fellowship funding;

  10. Investment…. Phase III Investment Strategy (Police Scotland and HEIs) • Infra-structure and leadership; • Commissioned research; • Continuation of KE, small grants and Practitioner Fellowships

  11. Innovation in knowledge exchange…

  12. The SIPR Postgraduate Policing Diploma & MSc Development funding from:

  13. Interdisciplinary 16 different academic disciplines across 3 networks…

  14. Internationality

  15. Impact I: performance indicators

  16. Impact II: evidence into practice Supporting a research-based practitioner model Developing an embedded research model The Self-Administered Interview Tool; Procedural justice and new recruit training; • ‘Match-making’ Practitioner Fellowships; • Secondments to SIPR; • Graduate Programme in Policing

  17. Impact II evidence into practice • ‘Organisational excellence’ model • Knowledge brokering

  18. Critical Reflections: A ‘SCOT’ analysis Strengths • The relationship between Police Scotland and Higher Education; • Expanding research capacity; • Inter-disciplinary and international network. Challenges • Leading, managing and co-ordinating the consortium; • Relationships and communications with key partners; • Sustainability

  19. Critical Reflections: A ‘SCOT’ analysis Opportunities • Competitive advantage for research and KE funding; • Pathways to impact; • An expanding research agenda. Threats • Funding and receptivity to research in an era of austerity and reform….
