the best use of public data for public good. He says:
“If we are to tackle societal problems through addressing their root causes then we need to
be working in multistakeholder partnerships, bringing Law Enforcement and Public Health
practitioners and academics together in trauma informed approaches to problem solving.
“We need a robust understanding and insight into the nature and prevalence of the complex
risk factors that exist, and we need to be working through whole of society activities to build
upon evidence and data-led approaches.
“It is in this context that I am proud to be a GLEPHA Fellow and represent its mission.
