Each meeting will kick off with a presentation by one participant on a criminological topic, followed by an open discussion. Topics in this course comprise a range of selected issues from the field of criminology and penitentiary law, both theoretical and practical. Research topics will be discussed and selected in the first session.

The aim of this course is to explore a range of contemporary issues and enable communication and interaction between participants from diverse backgrounds.

For prison inmates, this course provides an opportunity to engage with university students and explore topics relevant to their offending and imprisonment. The course also serves to enhance communication, discussion, and social engagement.
