IPT Research
In January 1997 the IPT added a much-needed research department using sound social
science methodologies to monitor our programmes, disseminate our findings, and to monitor,
assess, and explain conflicts.
Current research includes four key issues, namely
the interface between local government
structures and traditional leaders,
supporting and developing the CASS initiative,
researching and evaluating our work within the Justice Sector
and research into crime prevention strategies.
In addition we continue to participate in numerous smaller ad hoc research projects which arise from time to time.
