Irvin Waller

Bookings & Speeches

Irvin Waller is a stimulating public speaker. He is invited and re-invited across the world to talk to politicians, professionals and concerned citizens. His knowledge from working with leaders in North America and other parts of the world is unique. He challenges his audiences to understand the solutions to crime and act to make them happen.

Among the themes that have made him popular are:

1. Less Law, More Order: Making it Happen

Less Law, More Order explains what has worked to reduce crime and what is cost effective. It shows what must be done to put those actions into practice by shifting expenditures from what does not work to investments in services for young men at risk, women and neighborhoods. ¨For the harm done by the offender, he is accountable, but for the harm done not using what works, for that we are all accountable¨. So we must know how to act and make it happen.

2. Acting Boldly to Prevent Violent Crime

Thirty years of over spending on punishing violent offenders has increased taxes, violated victim rights, and done little to stop violent crime. The US National Research Council and the World Health Organization have identified pre-crime prevention programs that stop young men turning to violence. Less Law, More Order shows how Congress, State Legislatures and Cities can use these proven strategies to stop violence, reduce taxes and provide better futures for our communities but our leaders must act boldly.

3. Let´s Guarantee Rights for Victims of Crime

Victims of crime want violent crime to stop. Less Law, More Order communicates to voters, potential victims and politicians the key information on the proven program to prevent violence. It shows what Congress, States and Cities must do to reduce the number of victims. It also uses standards agreed by governments across the world, including the USA, to show what police and courts must do to guarantee those rights for victims of crime by providing remedies when police, court and other systems do not change.

He provides a promising and hopeful message on issues that frustrate, worry but also interest so many audiences. Less Law, More Order provides an authoritative base. Irvin Waller provides clear messages in a forthright style. He has got many repeat invitations now that the book is in paperback.

He has done key note speeches or addressed legislative groups recently in Cincinatti, D.C., Los Angeles, Ottawa and Edmonton as well as Beijing, Buenos Aires, Edinburgh, Kyoto, London, and Mexico City.
