SPEAKERS
Dr Ian Marder
Associate Professor in Criminology at Maynooth University, School of Law and Criminology
Ian’s research explores how restorative justice and restorative practices can be used to prevent, reduce and repair the harm caused by crime and criminal justice, while reorienting justice to meet citizens' and professionals' needs. He will talk about how restorative justice can be used pre- and post-sentence, as well as the role of probation and the courts in restorative justice in Ireland.
Dr Jon Hobson
Associate Professor in Social Sciences at the University of Gloucestershire
Jon’s research focuses on the interconnected issues of conflict and reconciliation. In particular, Jon is interested in the ways we manage and then overcome harm. This includes harm at the individual and community levels. Jon will talk about his involvement with restorative justice at a national policy level and how it overlaps with probation in England and Wales.
