RIGHTS OF JUVENILES IN CONFLICT WITH THE LAW

Victim-offender mediation for juveniles in conflict with the law supports the healing process of victims by providing a safe, controlled setting for them to meet and speak with offenders. Moreover, it allows offenders to learn about the impact of their crimes on the victims and take direct responsibility for their behaviour. Finally, victim-offender mediation provides an opportunity for the victim and offender to develop a mutually acceptable plan that addresses the harm caused by the crime.
UNICEF supported the introduction of mediation into the juvenile justice system of Montenegro. As a result, 38 professionals from different occupations became mediators for juveniles in conflict with the law certified by the Ministry of Justice. Two publications - Rights of Children in Conflict with the Law and Attendance Order Implementation Rules -were printed in autumn 2007 in order for the mediators and juveniles to become acquainted with their rights and benefits of mediation.
