Nancy Hey discusses building evidence and capacity for evidence-informed policymaking. She notes that the UK is a world leader in providing scientific advice to policymakers. The What Works Network organizations help share learning across different areas by bringing together researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders. These networks have helped spread this evidence-informed approach internationally. Effective knowledge sharing requires collaboration between various groups to support decisions grounded in strong evidence rather than assumptions.
This document summarizes a presentation given at the 21st meeting of the Implementation Network of Ireland and Northern Ireland on April 14, 2021. The presentation focused on lessons learned from implementing Scotland's Early Intervention Framework for children and young people's mental health. Key points included:
- Developing the framework took longer than anticipated due to the need to establish scope/focus and develop consensus among stakeholders.
- The framework includes a searchable database of evidence-based mental health interventions for children and youth, with information on implementation factors.
- A self-assessment tool allows users to evaluate local implementation contexts and compare interventions.
- Considering local context, needs, and resources is important for aligning investments and maximizing impact
The webinar presentation summarizes the LEARN Toolkit project which developed best practices for research data management. It includes 23 case studies organized into 8 sections covering topics like policies, advocacy, costs, roles and responsibilities. The project produced a model research data management policy and guidance document to help institutions develop their own policies. It engaged stakeholders through workshops around Europe and Latin America to align policies and terminology. The materials from the project, including the model policy, are published in the LEARN Toolkit which aims to support research organizations in improving their research data management.
The document discusses strategies for implementing evidence-informed practice in children's services. It describes the work of Research in Practice, a UK organization that supports the use of research evidence in policy and practice. The organization offers a six-strand program to develop an evidence-informed culture, including change projects, publications, learning events and a practitioner network. It advocates an approach where research evidence informs but does not replace practitioner expertise and service-user views. Leadership support is key to embedding an evidence-informed culture organization-wide.

A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC CharlotteCori Faklaris
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

Overcoming hope and delivering on
expectations: the lessons of implementing
evidence-based approaches in policing
17. Chief Constable (Thames Valley Police and
National Policing Improvement Agency)
Academic – Researcher, author and teacher at Cambridge
and Co-Chair of Campbell (Crime and Justice)
A “Pracademic” focus: a foot in both camps
18. Evidence Based Policing HEALTH WARNING
IS NOT
• About collecting evidence for courts
• “forensics” or “technology”
• About new ”toys” or the latest bright
idea
IS
• Driven by data
• The “best evidence” for a tactic,
strategy, technology or technique
• A discipline of managing policing –
targeting problems, testing practices
and tracking outcomes
20. The Triple T
Targeting: Aiming for biggest impact
Testing: Deciding what works and How?
Tracking: Measuring BOTH policing and crime
21. Targeting
Focus
• Places, offenders, victims, gangs
• Specific Crimes
Classify
• Concentrations
• Causes
Prioritize
• Greatest impact
• Best chance of success
22. Testing: What Works?
• Comparing two interventions
• Designed to tackle the same kind of problems: prevent
crime, reduce disorder, improve morale, raise confidence
THEN ASKING:
• Which one works better?
• Which one costs less?
• Which one gets best result for same cost?
• Key example: Hotspot Policing v Random/Reactive Police Patrol
23. The Rajasthan Police Station Experiment (Banerjee
et al., 2012)
• Four interventions to improve police performance and the public’s
perception of the police in 162 police stations (covering over one-fifth of
the State’s police stations and personnel):
• (1) placing community observers in police stations;
• (2) a freeze on transfers of police staff;
• (3) in‐service training to update skills;
• (4) weekly duty rotation with a guaranteed day off per week.
• The results illustrate that two of the reform interventions, the freeze on
transfers and the training, improved police effectiveness and public and
crime victims’ satisfaction.

31. 1.Police should focus efforts on
high activity places and people
(focused deterrence review, hot
spots review)
2.Police will increase their
effectiveness with proactive
problem solving (over simply
focused approaches) (POP
review, drug enforcement review)
3.Police should go beyond
traditional approaches, like using
law enforcement and arrest (POP
review, hot spots review, drug
enforcement review, diversion
review)

44. Action 1: Defining the problems: Case study: priority
is making it easier to report and investigate sexual
crimes against women
45. 45
Body Worn Cameras are
used widely in many
countries:
Do they work and if so
how and what for ?
What are the lessons for police
leaders?
Body Worn Cameras: building Legitimacy and reducing assaults and complaints
46. Action 2: Getting ready for Evidence-based Policing
• Masterclasses: the Australia/New Zealand Model
• Building a group of informed senior and middle managers
• Pracademics: the UK, US, Australia, NZ and Canada Model
• Building a group of expert practitioners
• Evidence-based Policing Teams: the NZ Model
• Creating the capacity and expertise to transform the agency
• University-Police Partnerships
• Building capacity and sustainable model of expertise
47. Action 3: Doing the data on current performance
The best available data on
• Offences, locations and
harm spots, staff
• Offenders
• Victims
So that you can look for
concentrations of
• Offences/problems
• Harmful offenders
• Vulnerable victims
48. Action 4: Targeting the problem
Case Study: Knife crime
in London:
The study by a Masters
student – Detective Chief
Inspector John Massey –
showed the knife crimes
were very highly
concentrated
Finding the harm spots is
the key start to a strategy
to prevent them
49. Action 5: Women’s Help Desk Experiment (Madhya
Pradesh) – clear stages of implementation
Four key elements to the
intervention being tested:
• 1) the creation of physical
spaces within stations
mandated to assist
women;
• 2) the development of
standard operating
procedures (SOPs) and
training to guide officers
assigned to the desks;
• 3) outreach to local
women’s networks with the
aim of socially-embedding
the WHDs in their
surrounding communities;
and
• 4) the allocation of
additional female officers
to the WHDs.
50. Action 6: Building your own skills and capacity
• The Highest risk of problems with Evidence Based
Policing implementation were where
• Novice investigator/senior officer
• New department or “research station” (for
experiments)
• Novel topic
(Neyroud, 2017)
51. Action 7: making it happen: the leadership challenge
Personal and focused leadership
attention on tracking implementation
Case study: tracking police patrols of
homicide hotspots in Trinidad and
Tobago and Copstat
52. Action 8: Tracking Primary outcomes being measured:
Case Study Madhya Pradesh WHD experiment
(1) citizen perceptions, including satisfaction with and trust in the police;
(2) women contacting the police;
(3) crimes registered – where increased reporting is indicative of more effective policing;
(4) action taken on these crimes;
(5) police officer perceptions and reported actions.
54. Action 10:
share the
results and
collaborate
• Publish working reports
• National Research Map
• Collaborate to replicate
• National Society of Evidence-based Policing?
