Women are in the minority in closed treatment facilities (TBS) and other forms of forensic care worldwide. In the Netherlands, only 10% of patients admitted to forensic care are women, but their number is slowly increasing. Do the existing treatments and measurement instruments, developed predominantly for male patients, work equally well in women? No, says Professor Vivienne de Vogel. When it comes to women, the nature of the crimes involved, the motives and the treatment needs are different. What does this mean for forensic care?

Kort voor ons interview keerde Jordan Habets terug uit Llorett de Mar in Spanje. Niet om daar wild te feesten, zoals je normaal gesproken zou verwachten van een 21-jarige man, maar om er zwaar te trainen. Jordan is al jaren een veelbelovende wielrenner die naast zijn opleiding keihard werkt aan een carrière in de wielersport. Hij haalde probleemloos zijn bachelor Geneeskunde en doet nu de masteropleiding Human Movement Sciences. En ook dat gaat hem goed af naast alle trainingen en wedstrijden.

Nozizwe Dube has been paying attention to issues of equality and justice since she was a child. When she moved from her native Zimbabwe to Belgium at age 14, she suddenly became part of a minority herself and was forced to deal with racism and sexism directly. “My interest in this subject grew enormously. I started studying law and am now focusing my PhD research on intersectional discrimination in the European legal system.”

Als assistent-professor strafrecht en criminologie heeft Robin Hofmann vooral belangstelling voor georganiseerde misdaad. En als je in Nederland woont, leidt dat onderwerp je al snel in één richting: onderzoek naar cannabis en de legalisering ervan. “Nederland is de perfecte plek om georganiseerde misdaad te bestuderen: niet alleen is het een zeer actueel onderwerp, maar de Nederlanders pakken het ook nog eens progressief aan.”
