Perception and reality don’t always align.

Across Europe, electronic monitoring is evolving rapidly, shaping how justice is delivered, experienced, and understood. But how closely do public perceptions reflect the realities faced by practitioners, victims, and communities?

From 6–8 October 2026 in Antalya, the 14th Electronic Monitoring Conference will bring these questions into focus under the theme:
“Electronic Monitoring in a Changing World – Perception versus Reality.”

Join colleagues from across the field to explore evidence, lived experience, and the human dimension behind digital tools in justice.

⏰ Final call — early bird deadline is April 15 (in 2 days)
A full week of training for €395 on gender-responsive approaches in criminal justice, bringing together practitioners working toward more inclusive and effective systems.

The 8th CJPE Summer Course, "She Matters: Gender-Responsive Approaches to Women in Criminal Justice," is coming to Barcelona this July.

Co-organised by EuroPris - The European Organisation of Prison and Correctional Services, CEP, and the European Forum for Restorative Justice(EFRJ), this four-day course aims to tackle one of the most persistent blind spots in our field: criminal justice systems built around a male default, leaving the specific needs, contexts, and agency of women and girls overlooked.

𝗬𝗼𝘂'𝗹𝗹 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲:
🔹 How relational risk and family dynamics shape women's pathways
🔹 Why trauma-informed, gender-responsive practice is essential
🔹 What supervision that supports safety and stability — not just compliance — looks like
🔹 How restorative re-entry can place women as active agents of their own change

Rotating workshops, expert plenaries, and study visits to Catalonia's innovative justice institutions included!
