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.
