Dr Hannah Graham is a Senior Lecturer in Criminology at the 我要吃瓜. She is an Associate Director of the Scottish Centre for Crime and Justice Research (SCCJR), co-hosted across five Scottish universities, where she leads on external engagement and impact (our relationships with people and groups outwith academia, and increasing the influence and benefits to others of our research). She has worked for universities for around 18 years, having previously worked at a university in Australia. Hannah is an author or editor of four books, published internationally by Routledge, and an Editor of the European Journal of Probation, published by SAGE.
Hannah has been invited to speak about her work locally and internationally, including speaking at forums in various nations hosted by the United Nations, the EU, and other institutions. She makes regular contributions in the media, including on radio and TV (BBC, STV) and in newspapers (including the Herald, the Times, Scotsman, Sunday National, Press and Journal).
Penal Policy Engagement and Academic Advising
Over the years, Hannah has contributed expert evidence invited as a committee witness to the Scottish Parliament and UK Parliament on penal policy and justice law reform, including topics such as community sentences and community justice, sentencing, bail, prisoner release and reintegration; the presumption against short prison sentences; electronic monitoring tagging and the Management of Offenders (Scotland) Act 2019; and prisoner voting, human rights and primary legislation on elections and the franchise. She has also contributed insights through invited expert roundtables organised by Governments, Parliaments, or international groups.
Outwith the university, Hannah held a public appointment as a member of the , an independent advisory body, for a five year term (2019-2024). She chaired the Council's research committee, and was a member of the communications committee, and the sentence discounting sentencing guideline committee.
Research and Academic Leadership
Hannah is the Deputy Director of the Stirling Social Science Impact Acceleration Account, funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). Known as an 'IAA', this is ?1.25 million block grant funding over five years to accelerate the impact and influence of our social science research. The Director and Deputy Director work with professional services colleagues to lead and make decisions regarding:
funding calls, funding panels, and oversight of funded projects;
strategic planning and communications;
training and capacity building;
promoting policy engagement between social scientists and Parliaments and Governments; and
supporting public engagement with social science research in running an annual Festival of Social Science.
Hannah has experience of doing comparative research in criminology and criminal justice across different nations, and being a part of international expert networks. She is currently working on Leverhulme-funded (total: ?421,954) comparative research on probation, justice social work, community justice, and parole supervision across Scotland, England, Wales, Ireland, and Northern Ireland (PI: Prof Nicola Carr, Prof Beth Weaver, Dr Jake Phillips, Dr Hannah Graham, and Prof Fergus McNeill; post-doc researchers: Dr Fern Gillon, Dr Sarah Doxat-Pratt, and Dr Claire Johnston). While the research team work together across the whole project, Hannah is leading on the penal policy analysis and doing elite interviews with Justice leaders, policymakers and politicians across the five nations. You can find out more this study on our website, .
Previously, working with Prof Gill McIvor, Hannah co-led the Scottish component of a European comparative research project on the uses of electronic monitoring technologies in criminal justice, funded by the EU and working with an international team of experts from Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, England and Wales (PI: Prof Anthea Hucklesby). This electronic monitoring comparative research project has been recognised as one of the first of its kind in Europe, with resources available in English, French, Dutch and German. Similarly, Hannah was invited to make contributions to an Expert Group on Technology and Probation in Europe, and international electronic monitoring conferences, through the Confederation of European Probation (CEP).
Hannah is a guest lecturer each year at the University of Cambridge Masters (MSt) programme in Applied Criminology, Penology and Management course, and she has been a Visiting Scholar at KU Leuven university in Belgium and Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Australia.
Hannah is a member of the National Council of the charity, the Scottish Association for the Study of Offending (SASO).
Hannah also writes on Scottish politics and policy, recognising the importance of political instinct and integrity in doing so. For example, she has done research on First Ministerial diaries and how Nicola Sturgeon spent her time as FM in the last two years as leader, which was published in The Political Quarterly journal in a special issue on Scottish politics (2023). Hannah also co-authored a book chapter on ‘The People’s Parliament, Political Classes and the Missing Scotland’ for an edited non-fiction book about politics and policy, A New Scotland: Building an Equal, Fair and Sustainable Society (2022, Pluto Press).

Conference plenary abstract: Dr Hannah Graham
Conversations about rehabilitation and supporting desistance have been dominated by academics and policymakers, without due recognition of the experiences and knowledge of practitioners. Not enough is known about the cultures and conditions in which rehabilitation and criminal justice work occurs. This presentation draws on the findings of research conducted with different types of practitioners, the researcher's observations and rehabilitation and desistance literatures to reveal compelling differences between official accounts and what practitioners actually do in practice. Applied examples of how practitioners collaborate, lead and innovate in the midst of challenging work are complemented with evocative illustrations of practitioner humour, creativity and resilience. The presentation considers the influence of professional ideologies and cultures in probation and other criminal justice work. It includes an analytical critique of the issues and implications involved in narrow technical portrayals of practitioners as single-mindedly focused on reducing criminogenic risk, even in contexts where the Risk-Need-Responsivity model of offender rehabilitation is used. There is much more to their work than the tools and models that they use. The importance of valuing practitioner perspectives is underscored as an essential element for changing rehabilitation cultures in probation and community justice, including better supporting those who support rehabilitation and desistance.

The Dynamics of Innovation and Influencing Change in Probation and Criminal Justice. 3rd World Congress on Probation United Nations Asia and Far East Institute, Ministry of Justice and Confederation of European Probation (CEP)
This paper presentation considers some of the forms and functions of innovation in probation and community justice. It draws on applied examples and aspects of recent international research investigating ‘innovative justice’ (Graham and White, 2014, 2015, 2016; White and Graham, 2016; Graham, 2015a; 2015b) and is informed by aspects of a forthcoming (December 2017) Special Issue on innovation of the European Journal of Probation, a journal and Special Issue of which I have the privilege of being an Editor. Interdisciplinary conceptual insights are harnessed to critically reflect on the ethics of innovation in probation and community-based contexts, including work with charities and social enterprises. Not all that is new or seeking to influence change in criminal justice is effective, ethical or just, underscoring a critical need to analyse what is considered to constitute penal innovation – above and beyond consideration of novelty, popularity, visibility or managerialist notions of efficiency. For whom or according to whom is an idea or initiative innovative? What are its collateral consequences? How might an innovation not only promote community and civic engagement, but be more transformative in renewing the civility of civil society towards people with criminal convictions, ‘returning citizens’? How do innovative initiatives engender and build trust, cooperation, perceptions of procedural justice and legitimacy?Charting the contours of emerging innovations in the field of probation and community justice should not be divorced from considerations of professional ideological, penological, cultural and social influences that gave rise to such changes.

Graham, H. (2017) 'On being tagged and tracked: A narrative, visual and poetic autoethnographic exploration'. Narrative Criminology Symposium University of Oslo
Abstract: In this paper, narrative, photographic and poetic inquiry illuminate the experience of being GPS tagged and tracked, taking part in an experimental trial in Scotland. It is a reflexive tale of the teller, mediated by personal and professional biography, context and time. Drawing upon creative methods and personal narratives from a field diary, experiential insights are infused with empirical and theoretical insights to make sense of electronic monitoring and its collateral consequences. This is an account offered from the standpoint of working as a criminologist researching electronic monitoring, having shadowed electronic monitoring field officers and observed tagging in curfewed people’s homes, as well as interviewing a range of criminal justice actors about it. My own stories, emotions and meaning-making are juxtaposed against those of others to critique the pains and the possibilities of electronic monitoring and ‘embodied carcerality’. Challenges and opportunities inherent within unorthodox participatory approaches and practice-based storytelling in the penal field are explored – as a method of inquiry and a vehicle to influence penal policymaking and decision-making.

Confederation of European Probation (CEP) European Electronic Monitoring conference: App technologies, electronic monitoring and probation Confederation of European Probation (CEP)
Digital justice technologies and interventions are becoming increasingly used in criminal justice settings. The versatility of electronic monitoring (EM) is evident in how it is used for different offender groups, to achieve different penological purposes and across different modalities. App technologies are also becoming more prominent in the field of probation and community justice. Thinking about the uses and effectiveness of a particular technology needs to incorporate deep consideration of the ethics and purposes of how, why and by whom or with whom it is used. Reflection on what makes a certain technological approach innovative, effective and ethical and in what social context is important, as there are no panaceas or universally effective approaches in criminal justice. In this conference plenary, Dr Hannah Graham from the 我要吃瓜 in Scotland presents alongside Deborah Thompson from Reclassering NL, the Dutch Probation Service in Utrecht, on app technologies, electronic monitoring and probation, posing ethical and practical questions for discussion in the associated conference workshop which follows the plenary.

Stirling University researchers say electronic tagging could be used to greater effect. Scotland should follow the example of its European neighbours and introduce more electronic tagging to helpreduce its swollen prison population, according to research. The country has one of the highest proportions of prisonersin western Europe,withone in every 700 people in jail. Curfews enforced by putting monitoring equipment in offenders' homesareoften imposed by courts as an alternative to custody butStirling University criminologists say tagging could be used to even greater effect. A report by Professor Gill McIvor and Dr Hannah Graham says tailored approaches, as used in the Netherlands and Scandinavian countries, could be more effective in tackling reoffending.Full text available at: http://stv.tv/news/stirling-central/1359301-electronic-tagging-to-reduce-scotland-s-swollen-prison-numbers/

Media contribution: What's needed is a pragmatic plan and cross-party consensus - Analysis of a planned presumption against short prison sentences under 12 months in Scotland, Op-Ed article by Dr Hannah Graham, Press and Journal, 2nd May 2019.
As Scotland’s prison population spirals towards unenviable heights, passive acceptance of the status quo is increasingly at odds with notions of an effective and ethical justice system. To try to address this, the Scottish Government are about to introduce plans to Scottish Parliament of a presumption against prison sentences of up to 12 months. Short prison sentences for crimes that aren’t serious are short-sighted. As a criminologist who researches and writes books on rehabilitation and justice, there’s plenty of research I can point to showing that people are more likely to leave crime behind and address its contributing causes if supervised and supported in the community. Community-based approaches have better outcomes than custody. What’s needed in Scotland is a pragmatic, principled plan and cross-party consensus to shift towards communities over custody for cases that aren’t serious crimes. It will take time, resources and a series of brave decisions and actions.
