importance of prison education

The importance of prison education as a tool for re-socialisation, skills development and education for employability is clear in the sense that it helps prisoners rebuild a better future during and after serving their sentence. The aims of incarceration go beyond questions of punishment, isolation and detention. Education aids and enables the achievement of the central goals of rehabilitation, which focus on social redemption and liberating education in a dimension of autonomy, sustainability and minimising social discrimination. Education is everyone's right. The design and implementation of public policies aimed at providing special care for structurally and historically fragile segments of the population is one of the most significant ways in which the state and society can renew their commitment to the realisation of this right and the democratisation of society as a whole. The space and time of the prison system confirm these assumptions. Although there is no shortage of references at home and abroad.
