In this episode, Professor Ursula Kilkelly (UCC School of Law and Chairperson of the Board of Management at Oberstown Children Detention Campus) and Pat Bergin (Director of Oberstown Children Campus 2013-2020) discuss their new book, "Advancing Children’s Rights in Detention: A Model for International Reform", recently published by Bristol University Press. 

Using the case study of Oberstown Children Detention Campus, the book details how reform of children's detention facilities can take place through the application of a child-centred model of detention that fulfils the rights of the child under the five themes of provision, protection, participation, preparation and partnership.

In this conversation, the authors reflect on the major reforms made at Oberstown over the past eight years in transforming the facility and developing a rights-based, child-centred model of care for children detained by the courts.
