The Isle of Man Law Society is hosting an evening at the end of the month which will explore problem-solving courts.
This free public lecture delves into a collaborative approach that tackles the root causes of crime.
Professionals aim to work together to create tailored plans for offenders, reducing re-offending rates and fostering a more effective justice system.
If embraced, the cost to society of criminal offending could fall, both in terms of re-offending rates and cost to the public purse in prosecuting and incarcerating offenders.
What to Expect
- Expert insights: Hear from renowned Consultant Forensic Psychologist Geraldine O’Hare, who is a pioneer in Problem Solving Courts and former Presiding District Judge Fiona Bagnal.
- Discussion: Pick the brains of these experts to see how Problem Solving Courts could work on our Island.
- Open to all: Whether you’re an Advocate, a member of the public, or simply curious about the future of justice, this lecture is for you!
The event will be held at 6:30pm on January 24 at the Manx Museum.
