Successful Information Market Detention and Reintegration with Large Participation of Chain Partners
The information market on detention and reintegration, held on the 18th of April 2024, was a great success with an impressive attendance of chain partners and stakeholders. The event, organized by the Judicial Institution Caribbean Netherlands (JICN), brought together a wide range of professionals involved in detention and reintegration, with the aim of exchanging knowledge, networking and promoting a successful return to society for persons from detention.
The information market offered a unique opportunity for chain partners to learn from each other's expertise, share experiences and work together to improve detention and reintegration processes. With informative sessions and networking opportunities, participants gained a deeper insight into the challenges and opportunities in this area.
One of the highlights of the information market was the great diversity of chain partners present, including representatives of probation organizations, educational institutions, employers, social organizations and government agencies. Their involvement and active participation contributed to a fruitful exchange of ideas and best practices.
During the information market, important topics were discussed, ranging from detention procedures and reintegration programmes to aftercare and support after detention.
“We are pleased with the enormous turnout and involvement of chain partners in this information market,” said Charlotte Fairbairn, Deputy Director at JICN. “It demonstrates that there is a strong shared will to work together to improve detention and reintegration processes, with the ultimate goal of promoting a successful return to society for individuals emerging from detention.”
JICN also emphasizes the importance of society in offering opportunities to ex-detainees. Successfully reintegrating these individuals requires not only commitment from the detention and reintegration system, but also understanding, support and opportunities from the broader community.
The information market on detention and reintegration was an inspiring and valuable event that helped increase awareness and cooperation in this important area. JICN looks back on a successful day and thanks all participants and chain partners for their contribution to the success of the information market.
