Implementation Science in Criminal Justice: The Probation Experience in America
The International Network for Criminal Justice is hosting a two-part international online webinar series exploring the growing role of implementation science in criminal justice.
Online Webinar Part 2: American Perspective
Implementation Science in Criminal Justice: The Probation Experience in America
16:00 BST (UK Time), Tuesday 9th June 2026
This series brings together leading experts, practitioners and researchers to examine how research evidence can be more effectively applied in real-world criminal justice settings, particularly in probation services. By strengthening the connection between academic research and frontline practice, the presentation and discussions aim to support more effective, evidence-informed justice systems across international jurisdictions.
What You Will Gain
Participants will have the opportunity to:
Understand how research is applied in real-world probation settings
Learn from examples of practice in different countries
Identify common challenges and how they are addressed
Reflect on how approaches might be adapted in your own context
Take part in international discussion and shared learning
The webinar will examine how new research and developments can be translated into practice, what has proven effective in different contexts, and what challenges have emerged. It will also address persistent gaps between academic research and frontline practitioners, and consider how implementation science can help bridge these divides.
The American Perspectives webinar, taking place from 4pm (UK time) Tuesday 9th June 2026, will provide a United States perspective, continuing the dialogue with insights from American practice and policy.
Looking Ahead
A follow-up Roundtable Discussion will take place from 4pm (UK time) Tuesday 30th June 2026, offering the opportunity to reflect more deeply on the themes raised and exchange ideas across jurisdictions.
