Event topic in May: Environmental Design: Crime Prevention and Urban Planning

The concept of Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) was first developed in the 1960s and 70s by individuals from criminology, architecture and urban activism. This idea of relating crime prevention and community safety to the built and natural environment can play a vital role in urban and community planning. CPTED has been used around the world in settings ranging from public thoroughfares to school campuses, from parks to bars and bus stops. You will walk away from this talk with an increased knowledge and appreciation for safety through smarter design and planning.
