Prisons
Bibliozone
"When people think about human rights and access to justice, it’s usually about making sure everyone has access to a lawyer. But justice is something we should all be able to engage with. It shouldn’t be the preserve of a particular class or something that is just done to people."
Alexander McLean - Founder of The African Prisons Project & British lawyer
Foresight For Development turns the spotlight on the future of prisons.
