The Stockholm Criminology Symposium

The Symposium is organized by the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention (Brå) on behalf of the Swedish government. 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. The participants will be able to discuss strategies, methods and measures to reduce crime and improve levels of safety in society.
The symposium programme traditionally follow two main tracks. One theme is based on the work of the prize winner(s) and the other theme is based on contemporary criminology. The program includes a large number of parallel sessions, as well as the prize winners' lecture. The programme of the Stockholm Criminology Symposium 2025 will be published in April 2025.
