This document forms part of QCEA’s women in prison project. Our gender critique lists amendments and additions to Recommendation Rec(2006)2 with the status, rights and welfare of imprisoned women in mind. The critique has been informed by extensive research into the conditions of women’s imprisonment throughout Europe, which has taken the form of questionnaires to governments, female prisoners and prison staff and personal interviews wit female prisoners and the staff who work with them.
QCEA brings a vision of peace, justice and equality to Europe and its institutions.
