Data provided by the guarantor of prisoners Samuele Ciambriello. “Prison,” Ciambriello emphasizes, “is a community of pain that brings together agents, operators, volunteers and prisoners, often able to teach those who are outside a sense of sacrifice, responsibility and hope for redemption. It is a place of community in which the well-being of each person feeds that of all. If there is one story that we have learned from the pandemic, it is that the story of each person cannot be separated from the story of all.”
“I am grateful – he concludes – to the health facilities for the work they have done and are doing, also using the code Stp (foreigners temporarily present) to vaccinate many immigrants and many undocumented prisoners present in prisons.
