Our work

We promote fair penal treatment and reform in Nigeria. Our goal is a much smaller prison population, so that scarce resources go further and conditions improve for everyone inside.

Prisoner welfare
Prison visits and advocacy to improve health, sanitation and living conditions inside.
Abolish the death penalty

Rehabilitation & prevention
Reformatory approaches that prepare people to come home, and stop crime before it starts.
