ANZSOC CONFERENCE The 24th Annual ANZSOC Criminology Conference Crime and the regions: from the local to regional, national and international 28-30 September 2011 Geelong, Victoria Deakin University CRICOS Provider Code: 00113B Convenors Welcome We have great pleasure in welcoming you to the 24th Australian and New Zealand Society of Criminology Conference being convened by Deakin University and is the first time Deakin University has hosted the conference. The conference is being held at Four Points by Sheratons, just down the road from the Waterfront campus of Deakin University and situated on the revitalized Geelong Waterfront precinct. Surrounded by waterfront walking tracks, cafes and restaurants and on the edge of the city we hope you have the chance to explore the surroundings. Visit the award winning ‘Geelong youth activities area’ multi-purpose space (turn left from the hotel and travel along to waterfront just past the pier and you will see it). It is a wonderful example of creating places for young people that are accessible, engaging and inclusive rather than hidden away. The title for the conference is “Crime and the regions: from the local to regional, national and international” reflecting major issues affecting rural and regional Australia, the transformations occurring in major Australian and international capital cities, issues affecting the surrounding regions, the importance of these issues globally and how global developments shape and are shaped by local issues. We would like to thank Deakin University for their support, and in particular Terri-Ann Varga and Sarah Buckler and the postgraduate students assisting with the conference as well as the support of the ANZSOC national committee members. We trust you will have a wonderful time through a mix of intellectual stimulation, catching up with old colleagues, making new friends and enjoying the best of the city by the bay. And who knows, you might also be part of a city entering into Australian Rules Football grand final week with its’ team preparing to challenge again to be Premiers the day after the conference finishes.
