On 13 October 1989, the Council of Europe adopted a set of recommendations including the needs and responsibilities regarding the education of improsed persons.
All inmates should be offered the opportunity to engage in educational activities and that these activities should serve to develop the whole person, be conducive to effective reintegration, and encourage a reduction in recidivism.
31 years later, these recommendations are still relevant as ever.
