We are a dedicated multidisciplinary team of researchers at the forefront of investigating many different areas of criminal activity.

Illegal guns, illicit drugs, cybercrime, fraud, organised crime, youth gangs, terrorism and corruption count among the key crime issues we face today. Understanding the drivers behind these issues is fundamental to working out the best ways of responding to them.

Our work is based at Flinders University in Adelaide but extends around the world with ground-breaking research for local and international communities, including government, non-government, private sector organisations and the media.
