The digitization of Justice is a story of people. People who go to extremes to bring this project to fruition. Within Justice, the prison system is a world unto itself. Nonetheless, digital progress is pounding on the door. “Normalisation of detention”, “active citizenship of prisoners”, “working ‘through the gate’, these are all expressions increasingly heard within a rapidly changing penitentiary world.
A digital link between society and the institution makes it possible that detainees during their detention period adapt better to or stay connected with the digitalisation we all notice in everyday life.
Furthermore, guiding staff through the whole digitization process simply requires a different approach than the digital leap facing the administrative management of detention or the inmates.
