Female offending in England and Australia: Insights from administrative data

12/05/2026

This event features research presentations using linked administrative data from Australia and England to examine how female offending trajectories are shaped by patterns in mental health service contact and educational attainment over the life course. The findings highlight that women who offend often follow distinct pathways, and emphasise the importance of early, targeted support—particularly in mental health and education—to improve outcomes and inform more effective justice and policy responses.
