"This report is one of a series that was produced by the N8 Policing Research Partnership with support from the College of Policing's Innovation Capacity Building Fund.
The N8 Policing Research Partnership (N8PRP) enables research collaborations that help address the problems of policing in the 21st century. As a regional hub for research and innovation in policing it provides a platform for collaborations between universities, Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs), Government, police forces, and other partners working in policing policy, governance and practice."--Page 4.
Summary
"Principles of community engagement have become central to the role of the police and particularly the current approach of neighbourhood policing. Community engagement can foster collaboration between police and local people to identify and tackle local policing issues, and is associated with positive police-community relations and mutually beneficial outcomes. This review identifies the benefits of community engagement, barriers to its effective implementation and transferable methods of effective practice."--Background.
