Farmers at the frontline of rural crime
AUSTRALIA: According to research in the NSW Farm Crime Survey 2020, 81 per cent of NSW farmers are feeling victimised by crime. To combat this, an initiative to embed police with backgrounds in primary production into rural communities is showing positive results. However, successfully solving criminal activity relies on farmers reporting the offences, and for it to be even more effective there needs to be solid evidence to support a prosecution.

Gender Equity Approach to Policing in Kenya: Lessons, Challenges and Prospects
Despite ample evidence of women’s value, ensuring gender equity–equality is a major challenge for police departments worldwide. Using survey data gathered from a sample of 455 male and female police officers in the Kenya Police Service, this study examines the non-western plights of women in policing and describes a theory change to formulate gender-equity strategies for improved recruitment and retention of women in police service. Findings indicate that women officers can undertake most tasks better than or to the same degree as men, except for a small proportion of line duties, mirroring the literature on women in policing internationally. However, family commitments, an emphasis on physical strength for promotion, performance based on male standards, and male supervisors’ attitudes present severe challenges for women in the police service, reflecting the organizational climate and prevailing cultural norms. Implications for theory, policy and research are discussed.
