5th World Congress on Probation and Parole: Presentations are online!
The 5th World Congress on Probation and Parole was held in Ottawa, Canada, from 28th September to 1st October 2022.
The Congress brought together professionals from all parts of the world; 320 delegates and participants from over 30 countries. The theme, No One Left Behind, encapsulated the shared commitment of probation and parole authorities and professionals to reach out to and include the marginalised and excluded at the heart of their work. The Congress programme offered a wide variety of excellent speeches and workshops, representing the best practices around the world with the same idea; treatment and rehabilitation of offenders under probation supervision, respecting and protecting human rights and working for a safer and better society for all.
