H.M. Queen Silvia will present the 2023 Stockholm Prize in Criminology
We are very proud to announce that H.M. Queen Silvia will present the 2023 Stockholm Prize in Criminology in a ceremony at Stockholm City Hall on June 13.
Beatriz Magaloni, Stanford University, Mexico/USA has been awarded the Stockholm Prize in Criminology 2023. Through her research, mainly from Mexico and Brazil about the relation between poverty and how society is governed, she has demonstrated the risks with legal uncertain methods and violence by the police. Results have contributed to a reform in Mexico for reduced use of torture.
The Symposium is organized by the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention (Brå) on behalf of the Swedish government.
During its fourteen year long existence the Symposium has become a true meeting point for resarchers, policy-makers and practitioners who want to learn from the latest research findings of importance for crime policy.
Cutting edge research, provocative policy discussions, and international scholars, the Stockholm Criminology Symposium has always been a superb meeting, capped by the magical awards ceremony and dinner at Stockholm City Hall.
The Stockholm Criminology Symposium is one of the most important and stimulating international criminology meetings of the year. All criminologists should be encouraged to come to the beautiful city of Stockholm for this inspiring meeting.
In 2023 the Stockholm Criminology Symposium will change venue. Still in central Stockholm, the Symposium will be held at Münchenbryggeriet, one of the most characteristic elements in the skyline of Stockholm and with views over the beautiful Stockholm City Hall.
