What is Digital Criminology? Exploiting technology to enhance rehabilitation
Monday 5th March 2018
1-3pm
Vijay Patel 2.02, De Montfort University
This session will offer three insights into the ways in which technology can facilitate rehabilitation and help boost recovery and desistance for offenders of crime. There is a small yet growing raft of research which has focused on this area within criminology. Much focus has been on how technology is facilitating criminal activity. This session, deviates from this growing trend in criminology and reports in detail how digitization is currently been employed and how rehabilitative agendas can be assisted by technology.
Our speakers include:
Dr Victoria Knight- De Montfort University UK
Jason Morris- Interventions Team- HMPPS UK
Dr James Tangen – De Montfort University UK
Steven Van De Steene- Smart Corrections Belgium
