Association for Criminal Justice Research and Development

 

The Association for Criminal Justice Research and Development (ACJRD) seeks to promote reform, development and effective operation of the criminal justice system.

It does so mainly by providing a forum where experienced personnel can discuss ways of working in an informal setting, by promoting study and research in the field of criminal justice and by promoting the highest standards of practice by professionals associated with criminal justice.

Its activities are designed to lead to increased mutual understanding and provide insights into the problems with which all are confronted. In opening unofficial channels of communication, it improves co-operation between the different parts of the criminal justice system.

Working Groups

The ACJRD working groups are the vehicle through which ACJRD members can input into the activities of and share their discrete expertise with the association.

Events

ACJRD hosts a regular calendar of conferences and seminars/webinars on topics of interest to our membership.

Publications

The ACJRD publishes Conference reports, Martin Tansey Memorial Lectures, Submissions, Annual Reports, Research papers and Newsletters.

Research Hub

ACJRD wants to showcase member research and facilitate members who do research and those commissioning research.

Mentoring

ACJRD wants to facilitate the mentoring of future criminal practitioners and criminologists by linking members with other senior experienced members.
