Kocaeli F Type High Security Closed Prison became operational in 2003. It is located within the Kocaeli Prisons Campus in Kocaeli province and is approximately 130 kilometres from the conference venue. The campus comprises 5 prisons: 2 T-type closed prisons, 2 F-type high security prisons, and 1 open prison. The facility is constructed on a total area of 50.000 m², comprising 14,280 m² of open space and 35,720 m² of closed area. It accommodates a total capacity of 368 inmates, distributed across 103 three-person rooms and 61 single-occupancy rooms. Each three-person room covers a total area of 50 m², divided equally between two floors of 25 m² each, with an additional 50 m² of open-air space. Single-occupancy rooms measure 10 m² each, with clusters of two or three rooms sharing a common open-air area, which varies between 42 and 50 m². It will also be possible to visit the Kocaeli Open Prison during the programme. The open prison, located within the same campus, operates under a lighter regime, which is generally applied in the final stage of sentence execution.
