This chapter included the introduction, background to the study, problem statement, objectives of the study, research questions, scope of the study, significance and the conceptual framework to show the dependent and independent variables. The concept of community policing has been defined by many scholars and practitioners in various ways. Among these conceptual definitions are the institutional. According to the Uganda Police Annual Crime Report (2012), crime and social disorder is the focus of community policing. This is achieved through service delivery which includes aspects of regular law enforcement, prevention, problem solving, as well as community engagement and partnership. Community policing model try to strike a balance between reactive responses with proactive problem solving specifically on the causes of crime and disorder, community policing is essentially about partnership between the police and the citizens. Partnership in this case would mean each party having an agreed stake in the affairs of community policing, but is this the case, the amount of intervention of both the police and community in policing is not known, what is practiced in many Ugandan areas is sensitization programmes as little more than community policing quackery, consisting of pre-crime interventions that are based on neither existing knowledge of the causes of crime or existing knowledge of what programmes are known to change offender behavior.
