This project aims to generate the first account of Australian preventive justice. Through original legal, historical and critical research, the project will create new knowledge by mapping, for the first time, the legal architecture of preventive justice in the Australian Federation since colonisation, and analysing these laws and their impacts through settler colonial and coloniality theories. Outcomes include the first legal history of preventive justice in the Australian settler colonial context, and enhanced understanding of the role of race in preventive injustice. Benefits include publications and guidelines to inform preventive policy and lawmaking, research training and increased capacity for Australian preventive justice research.
