The University is actively involved in various strategic initiatives aimed at creating a safe learning and living environment for all its students. Some of these initiatives include the Hatfield Community Court and the Hatfield City Improvement District (which entails close collaboration with the Brooklyn SAPS, the City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality, the Departments of Justice and Constitutional Development, and Correctional Services, as well as local businesses). On a more operational level, UP’s Department of Security Services closely collaborates with the Brooklyn SAPS to improve the safety and security on all the University’s campuses and in its residences, as well as the surrounding environment, and constantly monitors existing security measures in an attempt to identify and address undesirable activities (both social and criminal).
