N8 Policing Research Partnership

The N8 Policing Research Partnership (N8 PRP) brings together police and academia to champion, support, and enable policing research, creating meaningful impact on policy and practice.

N8 PRP was established by the N8 Research Partnership in 2013, which promotes collaboration, innovation, and efficiency between 8 research-intensive northern universities.

We are a collaboration of 8 universities and 12 police forces in the north of England, bringing together the skills, structures, and independence of academia with the knowledge, experience, and data of police, building a sustainable network to champion, enable and support the best in policing research.
