Our keynote presentation was from Professor Meda Chesney-Lind, from University of Hawaii.\u00a0 Meda gave an interesting and engaging presentation on Feminist Criminology, Repression and Resistance:\u00a0 The Global South Responds to Rightwing Movements in the Global North.”\u00a0 We also welcomed Professor Setsuo Miyazawa as our guest and President of Asian Criminological Society.<\/p>\n

We enjoyed Welcome Drinks around the pool at Crowne Plaza Hotel, Gold Coast (pictured) and we held an informal conference dinner that introduced our international guests to the great Australian cultural experience of dining in a surf club – set on the shores of the beautiful Pacific Ocean.<\/p>\n
