    POLICING FOR A SAFER WORLD Singapore 2012 ................................................................................................................... ABOUT THIS BOOK Pearls in Policing 2012 POLICING FOR A SAFER WORLD It is widely recognised by top level law enforcement executives that it is necessary to actively engage in international cooperation to develop effective strategies to best position law enforcement in the future. The need for commissioners and chief executive officers from around the world to jointly identify risks, threats and opportunities as well as research new ideas and realities for policing led to the launch of the Pearls in Policing initiative in 2007. The only global think-tank within policing of its kind. Under the responsibility of the Pearls Curatorium, the Dutch based Pearls in Policing Secretariat had sole charge of the organisation of the Pearls conferences in 2007, 2008 and 2009. In 2010, the Australian Federal Police hosted the fourth Pearls in Policing conference in Sydney. The fifth conference in 2011 was again hosted in the Netherlands and the 2012 conference took place in Singapore co-hosted by the Singapore Police Force (SPF) and the Pearls Curatorium. This publication is a record of the events and discussions that took place at the Singapore conference ‘Policing for a Safer World’.
