SiP GROUP WORK

Poland

In November 2004, Doug Stephenson and Mal Gillan from the Spirituality in Prison Working Group were invited to run a two day training course in the south of Poland. The participants were prison managers and psychologists from around the country, as well as representatives from a Ukrainian NGO. (The Polish Prison Service is a military system and so there is a clear distinction between the guards and those who manage the lives of the prisoners.)
