SUMMARY:BSC Race Matters Network Race and Justice Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Dr Niina Vuolajärvi and Prof Nick Mai \n  \nPanel Title: Migration and Sex Work. \n  \nRegistration link: https://www.bbk.ac.uk/events/remote_event_view?id=35804 \n  \nSpeaker 1: Niina Vuolajärvi  \nTitle:  Looking for a different kind of abolitionism. Sex Work\, Migration and the Feminist Politics of Care \nNiina Vuolajärvi is an Assistant Professor in International Migration at the European Institute\, London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). Her interdisciplinary research is situated in the fields of migration\, feminist\, and socio-legal studies. Niina’s projects have investigated migrant sex work\, prostitution and migration policies\, post-deportation experiences\, and race and colonial legacies in Europe. \nFor more information\, see: https://vuolajarvi.weebly.com/ and https://www.lse.ac.uk/european-institute/people/vuolajarvi-niina \n  \nSpeaker 2: Nick Mai \nTitle: Queering Sexual Humanitarianism Through Collaborative Ethnographic Filmmaking \nNick Mai will present an analysis of the evolution of his research and co-creative filmmaking with migrant sex workers. He will present different attempts to queer the politics of representation framing contemporary humanitarian and other documentary genres (including ethno-fiction) in relation to the ethical and visual constraints posed by the stigmatisation of their protagonists. \nNick Mai is a filmmaker\, ethnographer and sociologist working as Professor of Criminology at the University of Leicester. His research findings\, publicatyions and films focus on the experiences and representations of stigmatised and criminalised migrant groups. Through collaborative\, participative and co-creative methodologies my work aims to put their own priorities\, needs and trajectories at the centre of the research findings\, representations and policies. Nick is the author of Mobile Orientations: An Intimate Autoethnography of Migration\, Sex Work\, and Humanitarian Borders (Chicago University Press\, 2018).

SUMMARY:Reimagining Probation and the Rehabilitation of Offenders conference
DESCRIPTION:The BSC Midland Regional branch and University of Wolvershapton 1-day conference: Reimagining Probation and the Rehabilitation of Offenders. \nThis conference aims to explore new developments\, policies\, and practices in probation and the rehabilitation of offenders. \nUniversity of Wolverhampton – City Campus Wulfruna Street Wolverhampton WV1 1LY \nThis conference aims to explore new developments\, policies\, and practices in probation and the rehabilitation of offenders. The new era of the renationalisation of the Probation Service in England and Wales has established a redefined reality for the service where both low- and high-risk offenders are supervised by the National Probation Service. This has also meant the introduction and involvement of new and existing partners in the supervision of offenders in both prison and community settings. The Target Operating Model for probation services in England and Wales published in early 2021 has set renewed principles\, anticipated benefits\, and promises for offenders\, victims\, and probation officers in the renationalised infrastructure of probation. These ranging from transforming through partnerships\, an open culture\, and consistent supervision to changes in the language of probation\, modernising estates\, and more manageable workloads remain to be evaluated in both academia and practice. This conference thereby invites academics and practitioners to discuss their experiences\, examinations\, or expectations of this renationalisation enterprise and further appraise what path the new model imagines for probation and the rehabilitation of offenders. In addition\, the conference is interested in other developments in the area that may have accompanied renationalisation\, such as OMiC\, IOM (Refresh) and others and their impact on the culture and practice of probation and associated services. Due to the collaborative ethos the new model aims to establish\, academics and practitioners are invited to share their research and experience with multi-agency work in probation too – whether that involves criminal justice or non-criminal justice agencies\, Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements\, or the future of victim work and victim liaison agencies in the reintegration of offenders. The conference also appreciates how the renationalisation era has come after the challenging part-privatised state of the Probation Service which has been heavily criticised by academics\, practitioners\, and service users alike. As such\, it also invites discussion of the aftermath of part-privatisation of the service in relation to the state in which renationalisation has found probation services\, and\, crucially\, the continuing impact of the Transforming Rehabilitation policy. Finally\, the conference is interested in comparative approaches as well as experience or research on probation from other jurisdictions which may demonstrate developments in working with offenders and new rehabilitation policies outside England and Wales too. \nFull details about the event\, including the infromatoin on the schedule\, key speakers and registration details can be found here.

SUMMARY:BSC Learning and Teaching Network - Managing Difficult Conversations in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Hear about innovative approaches towards managing challenging criminological conversations in this free online seminar that explores a series of pedagogically-informed approaches to managing difficult conversations in learning spaces. \nThe 90-minute seminar comprises two 30-minute presentations\, followed by 30 minutes for questions and networking. \nCultivating trauma-informed pedagogies in criminology: Insights from student victim-survivors. Julia Downes (The Open University) \nMany people with lived experience of injustice and violence are drawn to criminology; however\, criminology has traditionally kept lived experience and victimisation at its margins. Survivor criminology emphasises the importance of listening to lived experience (Cook et al.\, 2022)\, so how can educators hold space for classroom discussions of sensitive and controversial topics with students from different backgrounds and levels of lived experience? I will share findings from an educational research project on how students learn sensitive topics in criminology at The Open University (Downes\, Wall & Alvaer 2022) and a digital toolkit co-produced with students and tutors as part of the Positive Digital Practices project. In attending to the experiences of student victim-survivors studying gender-based violence I emphasise how supporting the strengths\, capacities\, and skills of those of us with lived experience can transform the criminological classroom. \nA recent THE Campus article related to the particulars of this presentation can be found here. \nAn inclusive learning design approach to individual and socially sensitive topics in the classroom. Rachael Burns and Cynthia Meersohn Schmidt (University of York) \nWith a broad outlook on mental wellbeing in the classroom\, we aim to introduce perspectives and strategies that can serve colleagues in Higher and Further Education to introduce and discuss difficult topics in the classroom. We will be drawing from cases from our teaching experience including on topics such as hate crime and debating social anxiety as a medical gaze. \nShould you have any queries about this event\, please contact Sean Butcher (s.b.butcher@leeds.ac.uk). \nRegister for the seminar here.

SUMMARY:BSC Victims Network and Women\, Crime and Criminal Justice Network one-day conference on perpetrators of violence against women
DESCRIPTION:The British Society of Criminology Victims Network (BSCVN) and Women\, Crime and Criminal Justice Network (WCCJN) are pleased to announce a one-day conference on perpetrators of violence against women. \n9.30am-4pm\, 21 October 2022.  Followed by a wine reception. City University\, London. \nConfirmed keynote speakers: \n• Dr Michael Flood (Queensland University of Technology (QUT) (Research)\n• Jo Todd\, CEO Respect (Practice)\n• Other TBC \nOver the last four decades\, significant attention has been paid to men’s violence against women and girls. Much of this has focused on victimisation – studying the prevalence\, nature\, impacts and consequences of violence against women – which has informed legislative reform and policy implementation with the aim of preventing VAWG and improving criminal justice and support outcomes for survivors. This has informed\, and been informed by\, feminist theory and research\, and Victimology as a specific sub-discipline of Criminology. \nBy contrast\, perpetrators of violence against women and girls have been understudied\, perhaps with the exception of child sex offenders where research has been most concentrated. The evidence gaps in relation to perpetrators have recently been acknowledged by the UK Government who have commissioned research and pilot projects on perpetrators of domestic violence to inform the wider Violence Against Women and Girls Strategy and forthcoming Domestic Abuse Act (2021) which acknowledges the need to focus on perpetrators both in terms of prevention and responding to violence against women. In Europe\, the Council of Europe Parliamentary Assembly has highlighted the importance of focusing on perpetrators of VAWG and called for member states to enhance knowledge to inform perpetrator programmes and prevention work. Over the last decade there has been some research on perpetrator programmes (Kelly and Westmarland\, 2014) but this remains fairly limited. Moreover\, emerging research on working with men and boys has attested to the importance of conducting work with men generally\, as well as those already known as perpetrators (Burrell\, 2018; 2019) but there remain significant gaps in this area. \nWe hope to use the conference as a platform to stimulate discussion and collaboration and intend to submit a proposal for a Special Issue based on some of the papers presented at the conference. \nThe event is free to attend and you can register here. \nRoom details to be confirmed closer to the time
