Researchers have published thousands of articles on restorative justice. However, much of this information is behind the paywalls of academic journals or is too lengthy to be of practical use. Here, Ian Marder, a PhD researcher at University of Leeds and the founder of the Community of Restorative Researchers, discusses the findings of some recent research.
This article is taken from the RJC's Resolution magazine, published in March 2018.
The RJC is pleased to announce the publication of its report of five regional workshops for commissioners of restorative justice services.
Since funding for restorative justice services was devolved from the Ministry of Justice to police and crime commissioners, there has been the opportunity to design local services to meet the needs of local communities. These workshops provided a vital opportunity to share notes on what’s working well and how challenges are being met with innovation in different areas.
