Shann Corbett (née Hulme) is a research leader at RAND Europe. She specialises in drug policy, illicit markets, organised crime, corruption, and domestic and family violence. She designs and leads evaluations of complex policy interventions and EU impact assessments, including support for the evaluation of the European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Training (CEPOL) and contributions to DG HOME’s impact assessment on anti-corruption measures. At RAND Europe, she leads an initiative to grow the organisation’s work on illicit markets, serious and organised crime (SOC), and corruption, building cross-disciplinary capability and external partnerships. Her work quantifies the scale and economics of crime: she directed a flagship DG HOME study estimating the finances of serious and organised crime groups in the EU; contributed to OLAF’s methodology for measuring illicit tobacco markets; and led a DG ECFIN project mapping the global circulation of prop currency and “movie money.” In the domestic and family violence field, she worked with the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) to analyse the impacts of COVID-19 on victims.

Corbett holds a Ph.D. in criminology from the University of New South Wales, focused on pharmaceutical drug diversion, and First-Class Honours in criminology and criminal justice from UNSW.
