The Stockholm Criminology Symposium: Programme available

The Symposium which was held for the first time in 2006, is organized by the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention, which is an agency under the Ministry of Justice. The primary purpose of the Symposium is to create an environment where international criminologists, policy makers, practitioners and others engaged in criminal policy matters can take part of the latest research findings of importance for crime policy.
