SIPR Survey 2026 - Have your say

20 years of SIPR. What’s next? We would like to hear your views!

For almost two decades, SIPR has been bringing together researchers, policing practitioners and partners to strengthen collaboration, share knowledge and support evidence-informed policing across Scotland.

As we approach our 20th anniversary, we’re not just looking back at what we’ve achieved – we’re looking ahead to what comes next.

And we’d like you to be part of that conversation.

Through videos, interactive features, research highlights and reflections from our partners, the report brings to life the people, partnerships and projects that are helping to shape evidence-informed policing in Scotland and beyond. From research and knowledge exchange to international collaboration and the development of SPACE, discover the breadth of SIPR’s activities and our ambitions for the year ahead.
