Unlocking Doors to Entrepreneurship for People with Criminal Convictions

The EU Erasmus+ PREP (Prisoner Reintegration through Entrepreneurship and Psychology) project team at Technological University Dublin, with the support of our partner, PACE, will deliver an event to explore ways to support individuals with criminal convictions into entrepreneurship.

This full day, in-person event will take place in TU Dublin Aungier Street Campus (the Courtyard). The event is open to anyone with lived experience of the criminal justice system, Pr*son and probation staff, reintegration organisations, charities and NGOs, social enterprises and any other stakeholders with an interest in how entrepreneurship plays a role in reintegration after Pr*son release.

Attendees can expect to observe first-hand a new, innovative e-learning programme on entrepreneurship, specifically designed for in-Pr*son delivery. Attendees can also expect to hear from experts in Pr*son education, Pr*son reform and reintegration of individuals with criminal convictions. There will be much scope for debate, discussion and feedback, with the aim of arriving at practical actions for tapping into the entrepreneurial potential of individuals with criminal convictions.

Tickets are free of charge and limited, so please register early to avoid disappointment.
