Jeremy.Prichard@utas.edu.au

Jeremy Prichard is a Professor of Criminal Law in the Faculty of Law, College of Arts, Law and Education. He leads a multi-disciplinary research team that investigates prevention strategies for cybercrimes, particularly child sexual abuse material (CSAM). The team is undertaking a five-year project funded by the Australian Research Council and an 18-month project funded by the Australian Institute of Criminology. Both projects examine how IT strategies can be used to alter the behaviour of Internet users, including by referral to anonymous therapeutic services.

Biography

Before joining UTAS in 2007, Jeremy worked in policy formation in Queensland in the Department of the Premier and Cabinet (child protection). His earlier career was centred in pure research institutes. At the Australian Institute of Criminology (2003-2005) he managed the first national study of young people in criminal detection centres (Alcohol, Drugs and Crime: A Study of Young People in Detention) and contributed to research teams on other topics. At the Queensland Crime and Misconduct Commission (as it was then called) Jeremy contributed to drug research as well as intelligence projects on corruption (2005-2006).

Expertise

Jeremy’s collaborates with a wide variety of disciplines, such as psychology, cyber-security, chemistry and epidemiology. His career has focussed on developing novel methods to understand and prevent the harms of crime.

He values contributions that flow from single disciplines, particularly in the context of theoretical work. However, like others, Jeremy thinks that as crime increases in complexity, there is an increasing need for trans-disciplinary research. This is characterised by ongoing learning between different academic disciplines and non-academic experts. It also commonly requires joint completion of project milestones (as opposed to completing discrete components in isolation).
