Miriam is a Psychosocial Therapist, and Author of "Suspended Values in Concentration Camps and Prison". We also want to welcome Special Guest, frans douw, who started out at age 20, working with juveniles & Dutch Forensic Psychiatric Pre-trial Assessment Clinic.

For 20 + years, he's also been involved in international knowledge exchange projects within the scope of incarceration & human rights within Russia, former Soviet-countries, Great Britain, the Caribbean & the United States. Frans works with the Dutch ministry of Justice, the United Nations, the ICRC, the Global Initiative on Psychiatry, Mainline & Council of Europe.
