The NSfK PhD seminar was this year hosted by Centre for Alcohol and Drug Research at Aarhus University. The local organisers were Freja Ilsing Magnussen and Thomas Friis Søgaard.
The seminar was attended by 32 PhD fellows from Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark, who all shared an interest in criminology and criminal justice issues.
The PhD fellows gave presentations and received feedback on important criminological topics such as:
- partner violence
- gang violence dynamics
- rehabilitation in prisons
- vulnerable drug users
- violence and migration
- the use of DNA as evidence
- knowledge-based policing
- female serious drug offenders
- drug policy
On behalf of NSfK, I want to thank Thomas and Freja for hosting this year’s PhD seminar. We have received a lot of positive feedback from the attendees. I am particularly pleased with the fact that this year’s seminar took place at the Centre for Alcohol and Drug Research. A lot of important and interesting research with great relevance for criminology and crime policy takes place at research institutes, and by including them in our Nordic network, we all benefit.
