The organisers have asked Ivo Aertsen to support paper proposals in the field of restorative justice. Papers for panels or workshops can be research or practice related, and we would have the possibility to organise one panel on restorative justice every day. But in order to realise this, we would like to have an idea already now on who is planning to attend the Congress and to present a paper, and on which topic that might be. Please can you inform Ivo by 1 July (of 2007) by e-mail to ivo.aertsen@law.kuleuven.be ?
