Effective technologies will be crucial for practical cooperation between the police and dynamically changing, diverse communities to improve local security.<\/p>\n<p>The research group aims to identify and explore in detail the opportunities and risks related to using new technologies in implementing COP and building better relationships and more effective communication between the police and local communities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Participation<\/strong><br \/>\nWe invite researchers and community policing practitioners to join this initiative \u2013 to participate in <strong>online meetings and contribute a chapter in a forthcoming book<\/strong> published by an esteemed international publisher (e.g., Routledge, OUP, CUP, Springer).
