Abstract | The objectives of the study were to delineate 1) the patterns and 2) the knowledge management of public participation enhancing contributions to crime prevention and suppression in Thai Society, and to make a handbook on such knowledge management. The study was conducted in terms of a literature review and good practice lessons learned from key informant police officers in the provincial police regions 4 and 9 and related civil society sectors, including focus group workshops. The researcher also conducted a public hearing with police and volunteers who participate in crime prevention and suppression in the responsible area of the police province region 7, respectively. The findings are summarized as follows:1) Public participation in crime prevention and suppression is not currently high due to issues and obstacles such as the public's attitude toward the police, limited activities involving police and the public, a lack of leadership from Police Chiefs, low police morale, low priority for community policing, and a general lack of focus in this area. Be that as it may, everyone agrees that public participation is essential in crime prevention and suppression and must continue. However, there is a need for public participation to be systematized and standardized in the selection of people, training and evaluation which should follow a recognized approach. 2) Within knowledge management, it was found that the knowledge available to police officers is focused on criminal law and criminal procedures, including related criminal acts as well as police tactics. The police get their knowledge of operations from public engagement and community relations and this is delivered by the high command. While volunteers found that they received virtually no knowledge from public participation. They gained knowledge by talking to friends and police, and through mass media and social groups. Such knowledge lacks refinement, and they need to develop essential knowledge to work efficiently. 3) Recommendations focused on more women's participation, continuity training management, creating a new generation, and engaging the next generation. In addition to this, the use of information technology to develop knowledge of juvenile offenders, educating vulnerable victims' groups, interest in indirect public participation engagement, and encouraging people to provide intelligence was advised. Furthermore, the creation of a network and a clear-cut framework with determining indicators (KPIs) to assess community police work at police stations, including continuing evaluation of public participation in crime prevention operations was also recommended. |
