We finally got to share our preliminary hotspot experiment results with a public audience on day one of the EBP SA 2023 conference yesterday. So proud of our @CityofCT @SAPoliceService @WesternCapeGov team, with the help and support of Simon Rose and the team at @PolicingWorks.

Full house on day 1: South African & international police, government officials, academia and civil society get together for 2 days at the @issafrica Evidence-Based Policing SA conference to present & discuss latest research findings on what works in policing and what doesn’t. 🇿🇦

Kicking off the afternoon sessions on Day 1 of our Evidence-Based Policing South Africa 2023 conference. Feel free to join the conversation online through our live feed today and tomorrow: issafrica.org/events/evidenc… @EBpolicing @EBPC_NZ @CAN_SEBP #EBP @HannsSeidelSA @CrimeHub

“We see a dramatic, very serious rise in levels of murder nationally: numbers increasing by 77 %, per capita rates by 52 % since 2011/12 - and the awareness for the scale of the problem seems to be lacking.” David Bruce, @issafrica

@Shjarback_CCJ @CrimeHub @issafrica @HannsSeidelSA Yes, very bad. And that's a national average. It's over 60 in some provinces and cities and over 100 in certain neighbourhoods.

@AGFaull @CrimeHub @issafrica @HannsSeidelSA Wow, 45 per 100,000. It was 7.8 per 100,000 in the US in 2020 when we experienced an approx. 30% increase from 2019.
