Introduction: Issues in Strategic Information Management: Frameworks for Public Safety and Security

The concept for this volume emerged from earlier thinking and writing by Moffatt and Charlebois on the topic of developing strategies for “strategic information management for public safety and security” [1]. This earlier work was motivated by years of research and development supporting a range of Canadian and international public safety and security organizations through our work with Defence Research and Development Canada’s (DRDC) Centre for Security Science (CSS).
