CoPaCC launched Policing Insight in May 2015 to provide a platform for stakeholders in policing and criminal justice to share knowledge, insight and opinion.

PolicingTV was launched in February 2022 as a sister site to Policing Insight, the leading platform to keep up with the latest in progressive policing. PolicingTV will continue this mission via events and video content including roundtables and interviews discussing the latest issues and sharing knowledge and practice.

Our content covers the full width of policing and criminal justice topics including policy, practice, crime and technology via articles, reports and our valuable Media Monitor service, a searchable database of news, analysis, opinion and reports from national, local and specialist press as well all the key policing and criminal justice organisations.

Our viewers, readers and contributors reflect the necessary collaboration between police and criminal justice organisations, the third sector, industry and academia to find progressive solutions to the significant challenges facing policing and criminal justice.

Policing Insight has developed an increasingly international focus with many policing challenges and innovations of common interest globally. As well as providing a platform for latest thinking in policing from the around the world, PolicingTV and Policing Insight publishers CoPaCC are founders of the World Class Policing Awards which launched in 2019 recognising outstanding policing from around the World.

In addition to two editors and a network of researchers and specialist journalists, Policing Insight has hosted articles from over 900 guest contributors with expertise in the police and criminal justice sector.

We hope to expand on this incredible service with the launch of PolicingTV, providing insight via events and video.

CoPaCC is proud to serve the police and criminal justice community, with a growing number of police forces and relevant government agencies, academic institutions, charities and industry taking up organisation wide subscriptions. Key organisations such as ANZPAA, HMICFRS, College of Policing, APCC, SPA  and Police ICT Company use Policing Insight as a valuable resource.
