Description

This first in a series of Urban Safety Briefs considers the evidence on whether increased budgetary allocations for crime fighting and crime prevention are effective investments and how they should be applied in order to be so.

The SA Cities Urban Safety Reference Group’s Briefs Series is designed to distil the state of current knowledge on urban safety-related topics for a policy and planning audience. It is presented quarterly to the City Budget Forum and other key stakeholders.
