at #EUROCRIM2025, PREVENT partners joined the session on high-risk criminal networks — exploring how to identify them systematically, how they infiltrate local economies, and which administrative measures can limit their influence.
Congratulations to all speakers!

This has been another opportunity to talk about the employability network we are building, as well as our ongoing work with practitioners!

To those who steal from publishers at conferences, please image that you are an author, looking for your book on display. How would you feel if one of your peers had nicked it, denying other delegates the chance to see your work? The books are for sale, usually with a discount. Don’t steal books.

Proud to be at EUROCRIM 25 presenting our poster: “Can Autobiographical Memories of Events Perceived as Threatening Shape Fear of Crime?—Preliminary Results.” We examine phenomenology of threatening memories, gender differences, and links with fear of crime and avoidance.

Very nice #EuroCrim2025 presentation by @stijnruiter.bsky.social showing how burglars are much much more likely to offend on streets that they routinely travel on when moving between places they have some attachment to (eg home, friends’ houses, etc.)

Very engaging presentation at #EuroCrim2025 by @clanfear.bsky.social showing how homicide offenders during the 2021 homicide spike in the 🇺🇸 were very different to the offenders who killed during the homicide peak of the 1990s, with lots of policy implications.

A reminder to my colleagues attending #EuroCrim2025: **a question is a single sentence that ends with a question mark**.
When invited to ask a question in a session, that is not an invitation to give your own talk on an unrelated topic.

Just seen images of armed guards and patrolled barriers at #EuroCrim2025... seems US exceptionalism has come to European #criminology.

This is such a profoundly bad move by the #EuroCrim2025 organisers/Board.
Bad for #criminology in Europe. It undermines work that has been done under its auspices.
People should ask for a return of their conference/membership fees.
I hope @britsoccrim.bsky.social is paying attention.

Here we go #eurocrim2025. Holding the conference at a US institution in Athens with American security measures that you would expect at an embassy does not feel right especially considering the current human rights violations happening in the US.
