Prato 2025 – Safer Communities
Improving welfare, mental health and legal responses to crime

About
Creating better outcomes for justice involved peopleThis Prato 2025 ‘Safer Communities’ conference is designed to bring together practitioners, legal decision makers, advocates, researchers and policy contributors to explore new and different ways of responding to criminal behaviour and the people who commit criminal acts, creating lasting positive impacts for people of all ages. We invite presenters to take a life-course perspective and to consider how efforts at various stages of the lifespan can enhance community safety and improve the trajectories of people who are justice involved. The conference will be held at Palazzo Vaj, the Monash University Centre in Prato, Tuscany, Italy.
Pre-conference workshops will be held on Monday 29th September. Post-conference workshops will be held on the 3rd of October.
Early bird pricing ends of 21st August!
