NISIDA - The Island of youth suspended 

 

 

 

 

The conversion of chastisement into a suspended rights economy has been one of the key moments

in the evolution of criminal systems.

​

Since then, the re-education of the individual has acted on his soul through 

the deprivation of freedom.

​

In Italy there are more than 300 youngsters under 25 detained in juvenile hall.

 

The IPM of Nisida, located on the homonymous island forbidden to the public, is the Naples' juvenile prison,

one of the 17 present on the Italian territory  and is the first for average daily attendance.

​

The Institute has recently distinguished itself for a cutting-edge re-education path that ,in addition to 

the technical and educational workshops, consists of activities in close contact with the lush nature of the island.

The exclusive opportunity to experience moments of freedom through the contact with a protect and wonderful environment despite their condition of imprisonment, aims to unhinge from inmates an attitude that idolizes

and emulates behavioral models of local crime.

 Isolated from the world in the blush of youth, the boys of Nisida

have the opportunity to change their lives.
