Introduction: Prisons should promote educational activities in formal and non-formal settings in accordance with the educational model that is carried out in educational contexts other than prisons. Methodology: The aim of this proposal is to promote social commitment and the development of skills, values and attitudes necessary for social reintegration. To this end, the aim is to develop this activity in the context of non-formal education within the prison environment, through the application of a service-learning methodology. Results and Discussion: Over the course of ten sessions, inmates will be able to work with young people at risk of social exclusion by telling their life stories. In this way, the prisoners will have to work on personal introspection and develop strategies to help prevent delinquency in these young people. Conclusions: All this will favour the development of a social commitment in the persons deprived of liberty and therefore, a series of skills and attitudes that will be necessary for their future reintegration.
