CSKA 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇨🇦

Community Safety Knowledge Alliance (CSKA) is a Canadian organization focused on strengthening community safety and well-being through research, collaboration, and practical knowledge exchange. It brings academic research and frontline practice together to help communities and decision-makers apply evidence-based approaches to safety and crime prevention. Its work includes horizontal evaluation, assessing and sharing what works across the community safety system, and research on how data and technology can support targeted, locally relevant outcomes.

CSKA also provides leadership and professional development, including training for first responders and policy makers on new approaches to community safety and crime prevention. Through technical guidance and knowledge exchange, it shares information and fosters cross-sector partnerships, extending collaborative practice beyond provincial borders. Its online resources include research briefs, reports, articles, a knowledge base, and the Journal of Community Safety and Well-Being.

Topics featured include cyber security in Canadian agriculture, impaired driving in Saskatchewan, collaborative risk-driven intervention, and safety in rural and remote communities. CSKA helps partners learn from evidence and work together toward stronger community outcomes
