In the seventeen years that have passed since South Africa’s first democratic elections the country has experienced high levels of violent crime and mixed results in efforts to transform and improve the functioning of the criminal justice system. The problems faced by South Africa are not unique, and it is unlikely that effective solutions will be specific to South Africa. This conference provides a forum to share research findings from South Africa, the African continent and the rest of the world, that contribute towards an improved understanding of crime, the functioning of the criminal justice system and innovative approaches to reduce crime.

Researchers, academics and practitioners will share their work and insights with colleagues from around the world at this annual gathering.
