The Canadian Society of Evidence-Based Policing (CAN-SEBP) is a volunteer-led network of police professionals, researchers, and policy makers dedicated to advancing evidence-based policing (EBP) practices in Canadian policing. We strive to empower Canadian police agencies to develop an internal capacity within their agencies to generate, use, and share high quality applied research to help inform EBP practice in Canada.​

EBP TRAILBLAZERS
The green EBP Brain shown here is created for Police Services to use as seen fit for consistent awareness and ease of EBP related projects and advancement.
​
Evidence-Based Policing is not only a concept but a core value where individuals and organizations collectively move beyond traditional methods and embrace data-driven decision-making thought, processes and actions. This approach enhances the effectiveness and efficiency of policing as a whole, and fosters greater community accountability, trust, and transparency.
Through continuous learning and adaptation, the principles upheld by the EBP aim to create safer, procedurally just and better society.
