Research & Advocacy Resources for Members
The Police Assoication's Research and Advocacy Team are responsible for conducting primary quantitative and qualitative research with our membership to inform our strategic direction and decision-making. Research and Advocacy has a proactive function, producing research reports on issues identified directly by members, as well as a reactive function, which involves responding to government consultations, inquiries, and royal commissions.
This page provides a selection of these reports and submissions. Members will appreciate that many of the reports and submissions generated by TPAV are highly sensitive in nature. For this reason, we can only make a small selection of work available. Members are reminded that these documents are marked NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION. They are for the interest of members only.
If you would like further information on any of these publications, please contact the Research and Advocacy Team at research@tpav.org.au
On this page, members can also view current research participation opportunities, and suggest potential topics that you want us to look into.
