| Trainings for RJ practitioners on accessibility and initiation of RJ |
 |
|
|
Between January and March 2014, four trainings have been held in four different European countries with the aim of bringing together RJ practitioners interested in getting to know more about accessibility and initiation of RJ. The 2-day training programmes have been hosted by our partners from Poland, Ireland, The Netherlands and Croatia (together with Romania).
The last training related to this project will focus on legal professionals interested in RJ; it will take place in Leuven (Belgium) on 14-15 May 2014. Save the date! By the end of March, more information will be posted on our website!

| Survey on RJ teaching programmes |
|
The Leuven institute of Criminology and the European Forum for Restorative Justice are happy to announce the dawn of an online database regarding RJ teaching programmes. This database hopes to include all the courses at the university and university college level available worldwide.
If you are teaching RJ and you are willing to make RJ more accessible by adding your programme to this database, please send us an e-mail with your name, the name of the course/programme and the university. We will then send you a short survey to complete the necessary information.

| Short documentaries about RJ |

Spiritual Roots of Restorative Justice
This informative documentary looks at restorative justice through the eyes of victims, offenders, judges, lawyers, First Nations elders and scholars of all different faiths.
Journey to the Centre
Inmates joined a group of church volunteers to plan and build the labyrinth, solving all the complexities of design that came with the project. They found it motivated them to think, engage in teamwork and give something back to the community. It was a welcome process, one that contrasted with their previous self-centred lifestyle and isolation within the traditional retributive justice system.
