Victims’ Rights in Restorative and Criminal Justice

Training Course • The IARS International Institute

About the CPD course

This half-day face to face course is designed to equip professionals with the tools and knowledge on victims' rights in restorative and criminal justice and aims to ensure that practices conform with the new EU Victims' Directive 2012/29/EU establishing minimum standards on the rights, support and protection of victims of crime. Additionally, there will be a focus on the Directive's restorative justice requirements and on increasing knowledge on how to treat and interact with victims in the criminal justice process. The programme builds on a pilot that IARS delivered over 60 times in five different countries involving 1,131 individuals and 383 organisations.
