I have been working with Silvia in European projects, where she has shown to be an extremely competent researcher and coordinator. She has the capability to deal with complex matters in a reassuring, convincing and effective way. Her sense of accuracy, sensitiveness, collaborative attitude and strong communication skills make her a great person to work with, don’t miss this chance!

Silvia is one of the best university students I have ever had.
Years later we found ourselves actively involved in the European Forum for Restorative Justice initiatives, and finally we became collaborators, both working in an EU-funded project on judicial training and restorative justice. Silvia is simply: brightness, commitment, engagement, endeavour, and honesty, together with a great deal of calm serenity and lucidity which makes working with her both a pleasure and a high-quality professional experience.

I always like to work with Silvia, as you can trust her completely, she has great management, research and writing skills, she works in an efficient way and always delivers in time. Being a creative, flexible, open and friendly person with a good sense of humor makes her a great colleague.
Edit Törzs
Executive Director, European Forum for Restorative Justice
Silvia Randazzo is a highly skilled professional with extensive knowledge on issues related to children in contact with the law, EU and national legal systems and has a good understanding of efforts to develop child friendly justice tools and procedures in various national contexts. She has also demonstrated an excellent ability to design initiatives aimed at improving quality standards and strengthen systems. Me and my colleagues enjoyed working alongside her and have benefited from the constructive attitude she exhibited consistently, were inspired by her high effort ability and appreciated the efficient communication we had in these processes.

Silvia is one of the few people I know who has this amazing capability to give body to a quite indistinct idea by transforming words into a very apt and visionary document. What was just an idea suddenly becomes this feasible goal. A true asset to any team
Eva Huls
Attorney-at-lay and Substitute Judge for children, Defence for Children International, and partner in FOCUS
Silvia and I have worked together in the FOCUS project, collaborating on research, tools and training. We have brainstormed together around whiteboards; we have sifted through research findings together and we have collaborated on resource developments. With her great analytical skills, well-structured drafting and clear (and humane) communication, it is always a fruitful experience (and great pleasure) to work with her!
Rebecca O’Donnell
Director at Child Circle, and partner in FOCUS
Working on child rights issues often brings a lot of challenges: tough topics, demanding work environments, stressful deadlines. Thus, it’s a pleasure and relief to meet and work with people like Silvia, full of energy, engagement and a good sense of humour as a coping strategy to deal with surrounding complexities. To take such example, we have worked together on the UN Global Study on children deprived of liberty, over a two-year process, and I valued highly not just her expertise and commitment, but also Silvia’s encouraging optimism and spirit to get things done – what we did!

Co-Lead Researcher for the UN Global Study on Children Deprived of Liberty (Research Group ‘Administration of Justice’)
Silvia Randazzo was one of the lead contributors to the UN Global Study on Children Deprived of Liberty. She conducted thorough research on the situation of children deprived of liberty in the administration of justice and made key contributions to the drafting of the chapter and developing effective policy recommendations.
With her broad practical experiences and profound understanding of child rights and criminology she was a very important member of our research group and represented us at expert meetings in Europe and Africa.
Silvia played a key role in the success of the Global Study and continues to work in the area of child rights with great determination and commitment. I experienced her as an outstanding researcher and consultant, and a great team player. It was a true pleasure and privilege to work with her.

Former Head of Department ‘Human Dignity and Public Security’, Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights
Lead Researcher and Coordinator for the UN Global Study on Children Deprived of Liberty (Research Group ‘Administration of Justice’)
With her profound knowledge on rights of the child and juvenile justice, Silvia has always been a great partner to work with. During our fieldwork research on child-friendly justice, she strongly demonstrated her excellent participatory, methodological and analytical skills. At the same time Silvia is very reliable, efficient and to the point and has a great way of communicating with different groups of people. Silvia is highly committed and you will surely appreciate her quality input and highly professional work.
