ACTIVITIES

Special Interest Groups (SIGs)

The Association provides an umbrella for a range of Special Interest Groups to which Association members can belong as part of their membership entitlement. These SIGs mirror the main themes of the LEPH conferences, and members of the SIGs will become increasingly responsible for developing the conference program’s content related to a particular theme.

SIGs will bring together practitioners and researchers from different sectors and institutions and provide the opportunity for establishing research and translational relationships. As well, SIGs can organise satellite consultations and workshops in association with the LEPH conferences.

International Law Enforcement and Public Health Conferences
(LEPH Conferences)

The Centre for Law Enforcement and Public Health (CLEPH), with local partners, has convened four international conferences on the topic with a fifth planned for 2019. These LEPH Conferences open up and explore the nature of the myriad interactions between police and public health.

The first, in Melbourne in 2012, was concerned with describing the field. The second, in Amsterdam in 2014, began to analyse the nature of the intersection and of effective partnerships. The third in 2016, also in Amsterdam,  brought the focus heavily onto action – how do we bring the better understandings we are developing to improve collaborations and outcomes? LEPH2018 was held in Toronto, LEPH2019 was in Edinburgh, both with a focus on collaborative leadership and LEPH2021 will be hosted by Philadelphia, looking for outcomes.

The International Conferences on Law Enforcement and Public Health are an important step in beginning to understand this intersection and to close this gap in research, policy, and practice.
