On April 24-27 2018, IPCA Europe organised an Interim Conference in Kjiv, Ukraine, on the subject of “Faith in Justice: from sentence to community”. Some 60 delegates from 16 countries took part. Some sessions were held in the Ukranian Parliament and others at the Justice Ministry. A visit to a prison in Kjiv was also organised.

The event was a way of supporting chaplains in Eastern Europe and more particularly in Ukraine, as well as providing prison authorities with chaplains’ perspectives on criminal justice systems.
