Achievements
Isabelle obtained her PhD from la Sorbonne-Paris IV (France) in 2002. She then went to study participatory and community justice in Canada (being offered an international postdoctorate scholarship at the International Centre for Comparative Criminology) and South Africa (Community Peace Centre Capetown, via a partnership between Western Cape University and the University of Bergen - Norway), before joining the Nexus Policing team in 2004 at the Australian National University. She chaired the Policing Research Development Committee at Charles Stuart University for four years, during which she evaluated various community policing and crime prevention initiatives at state and regional levels, while coordinating the curriculum relating to vulnerable populations delivered to NSW Police recruits. She joined the School of Government and the Tasmania Institute of Law Enforcement Studies at the University of Tasmania in 2010. She works closely with Tasmania Police on teaching and research, while still researching community policing and socio-legal issues throughout Australia and overseas. She regularly publishes on these topics, as well as in qualitative methodology. She became an associate investigator at the Centre of Excellence in Policing and Security in 2009, and became a founding member of the Asia-Pacific Forum for Restorative Justice in 2010.
