Project

Developing multidisciplinary strengths-based strategies for mentally ill offenders

With research tracks in criminology, law, medicine and ortopedagogics, the project wants to balance the dominant risk approach taken towards mentally ill offenders by focusing on the strengths, capabilities and rights of these persons. The final aim is to develop strategies to underpin a human, strengths-based, multidisciplinary and effective support approach towards mentally ill offenders.
