THURSDAY 8 OCTOBER

14th EUROPEAN ELECTRONIC MONITORING CONFERENCE

Electronic Monitoring in a Changing World – Perception versus Reality

6-8 October 2026

Antalya, Türkiye

Dear colleague,

I would hereby like to remind you that the 14th CEP Conference on Electronic Monitoring (EM) is

taking place from 6 – 8 October 2026 in Antalya, Türkiye.

CEP organizes this event in close collaboration with the General Directorate of Prisons and

Detention Houses Türkiye.

As Electronic Monitoring becomes increasingly embedded in justice systems across Europe and

beyond, its applications extend into ever more complex territory: high-risk supervision, victim

protection, digital transformation, and emerging biometric technologies. These developments

generate significant expectations, but they also raise pressing questions about effectiveness,

proportionality, ethics, and the human relationships that remain at the heart of just outcomes.

This year’s programme will bring together practitioners, researchers, policymakers, victims’

organisations, and technology experts for three days of plenaries, workshops, and thematic

discussions. Delegates will explore the gap between perception and practice; the experiences and

needs of victims; the role of digital tools in human-centered justice and the opportunities and risks

posed by biometric innovation across diverse cultural contexts.

Programme and Venue

The conference will be of interest to policy makers, project managers, practitioners, judges and

prosecutors, lawyers, data protection officers and academics. The attached program includes

plenary sessions as well as workshop sessions which will be derived from the plenary sessions and a

CEP EM café session. Besides these sessions, the programme also provides valuable time for

networking with other delegates.

The conference will take place at the ATGV Antalya, Education and Social Facility of the Ministry of

Justice in Türkiye (Antalya Judge's House) in beautiful Antalya.

Registration and payment

To register for the conference and for more information, please visit the 14th Electronic Monitoring

Conference – CEP – Probation (www.cep-probation.org) and click on this link to the registration

form. After having registered you will receive a confirmation and an invoice for the conference fee.

The conference is taking place at the ATGV Antalya Education and Social facility and we highly

recommend to stay at the ATGV facility for logistical and networking purposes. A special price was

negotiated for the accommodation of € 120 per person per night. Delegates will be able to book

their accommodation at the ATGV Antalya facility via this link on the CEP website.

About two weeks before the event, delegates will be sent a conference pack containing the final

version of the conference programme, preliminary reading, the list of participants and logistical

details.

Please bare in mind that the final closing date for registration is 21st of September 2026.

Please note:

This event is sponsored by the following organisations: Allied Universal Electronic Monitoring, Buddi,

Enigma, EnkoNet, GeoSatis, SCRAM systems and Securitas. They will be exhibiting their latest

equipment at the conference and talking to you about their services and new developments.

If you wish, your contact details will be forwarded to these companies so they can send you their

promotional materials in advance, so this will enable you to prepare for your visit to their stands.

We hope that it will also prevent returning from the conference with a suitcase full of brochures. If

you wish to be approached by these companies, please tick the appropriate box on the registration

form.

On behalf of the EM Expert Group I hope that you and your colleagues will be able to attend the

14th Electronic Monitoring conference and I look forward to meeting you in Antalya, Türkiye.

Sincerely,

Jana Spero Kamenjarin Secretary General CEP
