Reducing Indigenous Imprisonment Forum: Report

Recommendations from the Reducing Indigenous Imprisonment Forum were in part directed to ANTaR and The Bridge Network in order to be able to direct a public campaign. There are many additional strategies required to reduce the over-representation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Queensland correctional settings and in the criminal justice system as a whole. ANTaR and The Bridge Network seek partnerships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and organisations, as well as support and commitment by people across Queensland to campaign for implementation of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Justice Agreement and for a reduction in Indigenous imprisonment. This campaign will draw on current local and international research evidence about what works to reduce imprisonment rates, as well good practice guidance from a wide range of key stakeholders.
