SOLVE aims to critically address causes of violence and conflict through research, training, workshops, consultancy, advocacy, and street-based youth work. Craig is also a Criminologist, Urban Youth Specialist, and community scholar who takes the position of ‘bridging the gap between academia and the streets.’
