Our prisons are in crisis with insufficient funding and staff, and prisoner safety is at risk. This Criminal Justice Centre event brings together academics, policymakers, practitioners and stakeholders, to consider ways of reducing the risks of harm and suicide for women in prison, and improving the wellbeing of prisoners. Short presentations from the speakers will be followed by questions and discussion, and a wine reception at 6pm.
