On 11 October 2019 the Institute hosted it's annual Criminology Day, to showcase the research going on in the Institute to current members, new students and other members of the University interested in the work of the Institute.
The day's schedule:
Panel 1 - Communities, Crime and Justice
Paolo Campana - Illegal Governance of Markets and Communities
Beth Hardie (Peterborough study) - Beyond neighbourhoods: A more accurate way to assess the role of community context in crime
Loraine Gelsthorpe/Caroline Lanskey - Community justice responses to women and children in conflict with the law
Chair/Discussant: Justice Tankebe
Panel 2 - Understanding and Preventing Violence
Alison Liebling – The Prison Homicide Spike: Exploring Explanations, and Links with Suicide.
Manuel Eisner - Creating More Peaceful Societies - Global Strategies to Reduce Interpersonal Violence by 50% in 2040
Larry Sherman - Predicting & Preventing Knife Murders
Chair/Discussant: Ben Crewe
These Panels were followed by a Yoga session, and a Mural presentation to Rebecca Greene. Rebecca founded Drawing Connections…at the edges to bring the rehabilitative nature of creativity to people in prison environments. The basement courtyard mural, in which a wide range of students, staff, and visitor participated, was inspired by some Drawing Connections work during a Residency at HMP Whitemoor, summer 2018: https://www.crim.cam.ac.uk/news-events/news-folder/sunken-garden-mural
