    "Improving youth justice policy" with PROF NEAL HAZEL

    "Improving youth justice policy" with PROF NEAL HAZEL

    Supporting children who are leaving custody (‘resettlement’) is a chronic problem across England and Wales as both typical practice and reoffending outcomes have historically been recognised by Inspectors as ‘shocking’. Professor Hazel’s research has raised policy awareness of the issues, directly influenced government policy, driven practice improvements and informed the standards by which resettlement support for children is judged. His research forms the basis for a new cross-departmental national policy approach to resettlement, national standards for all Youth Offending Teams and custodial institutions, the Youth Custody Service’s new theory of change, inspection criteria and the curriculum for youth justice staff training to support resettlement. Moreover, policymakers and practitioners are increasingly recognising the usefulness of these research findings to guiding practice beyond resettlement, including for non-custodial sentences and for adult probation.

    "Greening the City" with Prof Mike Hardman

    "Greening the City" with Prof Mike Hardman

    With populations rising and more people living in cities than ever before, there is an urgent need to rethink our urban spaces. We are now witnessing more interest in the connection between nature and the built environment, particularly in the wake of the pandemic.



    This inaugural lecture by Prof Hardman takes the audience on a journey: from exploring revolutionary forms of green activism, such as guerrilla gardening, to how large-scale urban farming can transform our cityscapes. Through reflecting on his work in North America, Africa and Europe, Mike reveals radical ways we can reshape our urban landscapes and create more sustainable cities for future generations.



    You can also view the inaugural lecture over at the University YouTube Channel.
