The members of the Criminal Justice Platform Europe (CJPE) are excited to invite you to Barcelona for the 6th edition of the International Criminal Justice Summer Course.
Following the positive experiences of the last CJPE Summer Course, the 2024 edition continues to address a subject closely related to mental health, focusing on resilience in criminal justice settings. The course will explore resilience on multiple levels, and offer concepts to understand its significance, and practices that contribute to enhance resilience capacities.
The three workshops will examine the subject from three different angles. First, what contributes to organisational resilience; second, to the resilience of the staff; and finally to the client’s resilience. Each of these will look at key challenges, and offer ways to build capacities on the different levels.
This year’s edition is organised in different format compared to the Summer Courses of the previous years. Each of three workshops will be a half day long, and participants will have the chance to attend each workshop in rotating groups.
The ‘Summer Course’ consists of plenary sessions, three parallel workshops, and study visits. The aim is to examine key practice issues, inspire new thinking, promote cross-fertilisation and build new networks to improve services and practice in prisons, probation and restorative justice. The variety of the group, coming from different European realities, will provide further opportunities to learn and engage in criminal justice issues.
