About the Conference
The Criminology and Criminal Justice Conference (CCJC) is a creation of the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice at the United States International University-Africa in Nairobi, Kenya. The CCJC’s mission is to provide a forum for academics, practitioners, and students a platform to share research relating to crime prevention, good practice, and strategies for policy and prevention of crime. The CCJC is the only conference in the East African region that is held annually and brings together academics, practitioners, and students across the East African region, Africa, and the World.

To this effect, the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice under the School of Humanities and Social Sciences at USIU-Africa is organizing for the 8th Criminology and Criminal Justice Conference 2024 which will be held at the serene and beautiful campus of the United States International University-Africa on July 25 to 26, 2024, and is therefore inviting submission of papers for the conference.

Call For Papers

This year’s conference theme addresses the United Nations Sustainable Goal #16, which is titled “Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions.” Its goal is to promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all, and build effective, accountable, and inclusive institutions at all levels.

  2. Indigenous justice and punishment.
  3. Disability discrimination and the criminal law.
  4. Pretrial alternatives.
  5. Posttrial alternatives.
  6. Punishing juvenile offenders.
