Event: the harms of criminal and social policies

Thursday, 13 October 2016

We are collaborating with our partners at the Harm and Evidence Research Collaborative (HERC) on a conference in central London on 9 November entitled 'Exploring Harm and Evidence'.

The event will bring together a range of HERC members and guest speakers to consider the harms of contemporary social policy and criminal justice and to open up space for transformative justice alternatives.

Areas covered include drugs, homelessness, vagrancy, sexual violence, harms against LGBT communities, miscarriages of justice, crimes of the powerful and youth justice.
