Adult restorative justice conferencing in Queensland

Abstract

This report considers the expansion of Adult Restorative Justice Conferencing (ARJC) in Queensland. It presents the findings of a review of best practice and scholarly research. It also presents the findings of consultations with restorative justice staff and other relevant stakeholders and service providers across Queensland, including those who support vulnerable participants, such as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and victim-survivors of family and sexual violence. We also validate two previously published reports: a 2019 evidence analysis of restorative justice conferencing and a 2020 report on options for ARJC expansion. Show more
