The Essence of Probation: Prerequisites for Achieving a Reduction in Recidivism
Congress Centre, conference hall B4
Broadcast
In February 2023, the Federal Law on Probation in the Russian Federation was signed, marking the first-ever establishment of a probation system. This system encompasses a range of measures applicable to convicts, individuals subject to other criminal-legal measures, as well as persons released from institutions where they had served sentences of compulsory work or imprisonment, and who may now find themselves in difficult life situations. The introduction, implementation, and attainment of socially significant outcomes relating to this probationary institution are crucial topics for discussion.
