Part 2 The Call of Restorative Justice - Distinguished Panelists
From the First Annual Dr. Liz Elliott Memorial Lecture and Dialogue
Well known and respected for her decades of activism, education and outreach, Dr. Liz Elliott "...went where others feared to tread, with some of our most vulnerable citizens, and touched their lives and their hearts.", says colleague Dr. Brenda Morrison. Dr. Rob Gordon, Director of the School of Criminology at Simon Fraser University, announces, "We will do our level best to ensure that the spirit of Liz Elliott continues to frame the dialogues about the social justice issues that she held most dear. The annual memorial lecture will move her ideas into the public domain."
Widely known as "the grandfather of restorative justice," Dr. Zehr began as a practitioner and theorist in restorative justice in the late 1970s at the foundational stage of the field. A prolific writer, editor, speaker, educator, and photojournalist, Zehr actively mentors other leaders in the field. He is a strong advocate for making the needs of victims central to the practice of restorative justice. A core theme in his work is respect for the dignity of all peoples. (2 DVD set, 133 min.
