The Bridge of Hope Innocence Initiative
The Bridge of Hope Innocence Initiative follows the work of others in the innocence movement who aim to both investigate claims of wrongful conviction and campaign for reform of issues that lead to these injustices.
The Bridge of Hope Innocence Initiative at RMIT is a joint venture between RMIT University and The Bridge of Hope Foundation.
Established in 2001, The Bridge of Hope Foundation Inc is a registered not-for-profit, social justice charity with Deductible Gift Recipient taxation status. The principal activities of the Bridge of Hope Foundation centre upon matters of social justice, the implementation of justice reinvestment policies and the provision of both the emotional and physical tools required to assist in turning disadvantaged lives around.
Were you or someone you know wrongfully convicted?
If you, or someone you know, claim factual innocence and wish to have the matter reinvestigated by the Innocence Initiative, you may apply by completing an application form and returning it by email or post.
