Update on ICPC Knowledge Base on Community Safety: ToolsThe tools component of the ICPC knowledge base on community safety serves crime prevention practitioners, providing links to tools and resources developed by ICPC and other organizations. Whether you are at the beginning stages of developing a project or initiative, in search of new ideas, support, training, or trying to keep up-to date on the types of networks and information sources being developed across national and international borders, our tools section aims to serve the diverse needs of practitioners in the field.
There are descriptions and links to over 95 tools in this section including: specialized websites, toolkits, manuals, guides, networks, cd roms, etc. We will continuously add to this collection throughout the year.
Despite the challenges of language availability and limits of transferability of experience, we think it is essential to develop this resource for all those who are actively engaged in improving community safety whether local authorities, school personnel, police, youth groups, private businesses or the media. An outline of this section is provided below.
