Testimonies
“The concept of education not incarceration is crucial because it prioritizes investing in people and their future rather than relying on punitive measures that perpetuate a cycle of crime and poverty. Investing in education is more cost-effective and provides long-term benefits to society.”
— Adesina Ahmed, GFS Nigeria
“Knowledge breaks the cycle of violence and studying brings goals and focus. This makes all the difference in social reintegration after prison”
— Dorilene Lima, student from Brazil
