The European Forum for Restorative Justice (EFRJ) invites you to take an active role in shaping the programme of its upcoming conference (Poznań - Poland, 11-13 June 2026). Known for encouraging dialogue among a wide range of professionals (including researchers, practitioners, policymakers, activists, artists, people with lived experience and students), the EFRJ conference offers a unique platform to explore, challenge, and co-create restorative justice in diverse contexts and across borders.
We are now accepting workshop proposals and presentation ideas that reflect the diversity, creativity, and collaborative spirit of the global restorative justice movement. Proposals should align with one of the 3 anchoring themes of this conference:
- From Lived Experience to Evidence - Exploring how to translate restorative justice lived experiences into meaningful research and evidence that drive systemic and policy change.
- From Innovation to Public Influence - Examining how innovative practices and communication strategies are reshaping restorative justice and expanding its reach and impact.
- From Practice to Systemic Change - Investigating how restorative justice principles are being integrated into institutions and systems, and whether they drive genuine transformation or limited reform.
