TIFS Compilation of Web Survey Reports

The International Forensic Summit (TIFS) is an initiative that began at the International Association of Forensic Sciences (IAFS) meeting in Hong Kong , China in August 2005.  This initiative brought together the forensic leaders from the major continental plates to discuss establishing a co-ordination mechanism and strategy to enhance co-operation and share information.  As a direct outcome of that initiative, the National Forensic Science Technology Centre (NFSTC) in the United States has offered to establish and maintain a website for TIFS on a trial basis for two years. The United States National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is co-ordinating the development of the website with NFSTC with the assistance of an advisory committee which includes NIFS. One feature of the website is a portal for information.  This portal function could be established both to help members find information and to assist service enablers (such as NIFS and NIJ) distribute information. The web should be used as a mechanism for TIFS to accomplish some of its objectives.

This website is still under construction. However, to prevent the re-invention of the wheel, NIFS put together a number of senior forensic science students (from UTS) and forensic practitioners from NSW Police Forensic Services Group (NSWFSG) (both police and scientists), with varying levels of internet experience to identify what forensic links were already out there, how easy were they to find and how useful they were.  That work was then compiled by NIFS.  This compilation can be accessed here and should be a first port of call for someone trying to source information of a forensic nature.  It should prove to be a very valuable resource to forensic practitioners, especially those associated with informing policy or research.
