Abstract:
This presentation provides an in-depth look at the emerging concept of community safety and well-being (CSWB), a uniquely comprehensive approach to urban safety and crime prevention planning in Canada. The presentation will cover the history and importance of CSWB in Canada, the planning process, real-world examples, and the tools and resources available for effective planning and implementation. The goal is to educate and inspire attendees to engage in collaborative efforts to enhance local safety and well-being through evidence-informed approaches, social determinants of justice, and proactive measures.
