CRS 2020 – Abstract Submission Form
This is the Abstract Submission Form to be used for the 3rd International Correctional Research Symposium in May 2020, titled “Motivation and Well-Being of Correctional Staff How They Matter and What Can We Do About It?”.
The Symposium aims to elaborate on questions, such as:
- When (and how) do correctional staff in Prison and Community Services over the world work at their best?
- What are the challenges and difficulties of correctional work – in prisons and in the community? What are the outcomes for staff?
- Can we give examples of outstanding correctional staff? What difference can they make in offender rehabilitation? What is the evidence base?
- Are there environments or types of leadership that can support staff well-being and increase motivation?
- How do staff working in corrections innovate, or work creatively, to achieve good outcomes?
- What supports correctional staff in their work? What supports them best in managing increasing complexity? Is more training the answer?
- How can corrections staff successfully navigate job related stress?
- Can we give examples of excellent workforce development?
- What strategies are used to recruit, retain and reward staff?
- Where are the gaps in research?
Deadline for Submissions: 15 January 2020
The Programme Committee will make a selection and inform you by the end of January if your contribution will be included in the Symposium.
You can also propose to combine several papers from different speakers into one 1.5 hour workshop. It will, however, be up to the Programme Committee to select either one paper or the suggested combination.
