Interventions
- Collaboration Prevents Discrimination
Target group: public and private organizations, including not-for-profit organizations and NGOs, responsible for the organization and delivery of education and training at local, regional and national levels.
Place / Facilities: Iasi
Main actions: In many cases, ex-offenders face discrimination and have problems with their rehabilitation into society. In this context, many inmates return to prison, being deprived of the chance of a normal life in freedom. The project aims to develop an inter-institutional collaboration mechanism in Iasi county, to support the social reintegration of former prisoners, thus fighting the discrimination against former prisoners that are vulnerable to social and economic exclusion. To achieve it, an Icelandic partner transferred know-how on non-discrimination working with vulnerable groups. The project moreover organised trainings for specialists from relevant institutions that work with prisoners prior to their release, as well as former prisoners to ensure reintegration into the community. A support program to encourage former prisoners' reintegration in the community had also been developed and implemented. In addition, the project resulted in an inter-institutional manual on community reintegration of former prisoners.
