• Provocations (e.g. does EBP have a place in South Africa?)
• Advocacy (e.g. proposals to better align research and policing communities)
• Case studies (e.g. innovations in practice)

Requirements:

Abstracts should clearly describe the proposed topic. They should be between 150-300 words and include the contact details and affiliation of the speaker(s).
