March Newsletter
Again in March the response from contributors has been fantastic! We have received from 6 generous responses from jurisdictions – amazing. Under the jurisdictions tab you can now find information about youth justice in New Zealand, Somalia, Indonesia, Uganda, Australia and most recently Armenia. It is fascinating to read about the different ways jurisdictions approach youth justice. While most systems face significant challenges the wisdom demonstrated by individuals and various jurisdictions is inspiring.
Under the Special Focus tab you can now find information about infants and toddlers accompanying their mothers in Burundi prisons.
The site has received visitors from 52 countries!
A big thank you to all the experts in the field who provided information.
