Full Description
The main focus of the Handbook is female prisoners and guidance on the components of a gender- sensitive approach to prison management, taking into account the typical background of female prisoners and their special needs as women in prison. This Handbook forms part of a series of tools developed by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime-support countries in implementing the rule of law and development of criminal justice systems, including policymakers, legislators, prison managers, prison staff, members of Non-Governmental organisations and other individuals interested or active in the field of criminal justice and prison reform. It can be used in a variety of contexts, both as a reference document or as a training tool.
