Abstract

Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the main characteristics of women prisoners in the “El Buen Pastor-”, in Barranquilla (Colombia). The project was thought as an integrated program based on a differential gender framework, which would promote a more suitable reinsertion process and the development of new initiatives for equal penitentiary treatment and policies in Colombia. The instrument was the survey ENMURE, which focuses on women prisoners. The results indicated high levels of poverty among women in family conflict situations, with no formal education, and having experienced gender violence and consumption of drugs, previous to be in prison.
