IN PENITENTIARY LAW “PENITENTIAL JUSTICE”
The Penitentiary Law Seedbed “PENITENTIAL JUSTICE” is conceived as a space for study and in-depth analysis of penitentiary systems and the principles that govern the treatment and rehabilitation of people deprived of liberty. In a context where humanity, social reintegration and respect for human rights are fundamental, this hotbed stands as a place to critically explore the penitentiary regulatory framework, examine practical cases and debate contemporary challenges in this specific area.
Made up of students and professionals interested in the legal-penitentiary field, the purpose of the seedbed is to contribute to the development of penitentiary law, train competent future jurists and promote an efficient penitentiary system that respects human rights.
In the Penitentiary Law Seedbed “PENITENTIAL JUSTICE”, fundamental topics such as the rights of prisoners, conditions of detention, rehabilitation and reintegration programs, and new trends in prison administration will be addressed. Through the analysis of real cases and debates on jurisprudence, we will seek to understand the penitentiary reality in a comprehensive manner, considering both the needs of the inmates and the challenges of the penitentiary system.

The Seedbed in Penitentiary Law “PENITENTIAL JUSTICE” is based on solid conceptual and theoretical bases of penitentiary law, which include:
1. Fundamental Penitentiary Principles
Study of the essential principles of prison law, such as human dignity, the right to humane treatment and access to rehabilitation and social reintegration programs.
2. National and International Penitentiary Regulations
Analysis of current penitentiary regulations at the national and international level, including laws, conventions and treaties that regulate the treatment of people deprived of liberty and ensure respect for their rights.
3. Jurisprudence in Penitentiary Matters
Study of jurisprudence on penitentiary matters, to examine the interpretation and application of penitentiary regulations in specific cases and in litigation situations, and understand the evolution of penitentiary law through judicial precedents.
These conceptual bases are fundamental for the critical analysis of the prison system, the understanding of prison principles and the promotion of impartial and effective prison management.
