2016 NACOLE Academic Symposium at John Jay College of Criminal Justice

The National Association for Civilian Oversight of Law Enforcement (NACOLE) and John Jay College of Criminal Justice are pleased to announce the next event in NACOLE’s growing academic conference series: Building Public Trust: Generating Evidence to Enhance Police Accountability and Legitimacy.

This one-day symposium will be held on Friday, April 22nd, 2016 in John Jay College’s New Building in New York City. It will feature the best of contemporary academic research on a variety of subjects of interest to the field of civilian-led accountability, looking beyond the misconduct investigation and review process. More broadly, the goal of the symposium is to set a research agenda for the field, place scholars in conversation with practitioners and funders, and to determine a course for making the best possible use of the wealth of law enforcement data that is daily being made publicly available.

Select conference papers will be published in Criminal Justice Policy Review and other venues as appropriate.
