Place-based microanalysis

Tender description

The Violence Reduction Unit are looking to appoint an experience partner to conduct a place-based microanalysis. To further advance our understanding of violence at a micro ‘street’ level, a specific area within West Yorkshire will be identified where levels of violence are highest. The intention of the proposed research is to conduct a deep dive on this identified locality, developing a ‘thick description’ of the hyperlocal factors that influence violence. By focusing on a small community level, we hope to understand the drivers, influences and community voices to ‘reality check’ what the literature and data is telling us and develop a far more grounded reality of the scale and extent of violence and its drivers.
