Our Demystifying the California Prison Model: Scandinavian Perspectives event brought together leading scholars and practitioners from California and Sweden for a lively conversation about prison reform, rehabilitation, accountability and public safety.

The array of perspectives on the stage from panelists Jerzy Sarnecki, Amina Azhar, Ron Broomfield, Chesa Boudin, Carina Gallo and Jason Bell explored what a Scandinavian-inspired model could really mean for prison rehabilitation in California.

Following a great turnout and requests from students to make the event available, we’re excited to share the full recording!
