Dear ALADIN community,

In this ALADIN Online Alert, I would like to highlight several articles on prison education. Topics include:
  • embedding math and language learning into vocational training in prison workshops;
  • an EPALE discussion on prison education;
  • a guidebook, Cooking for freedom, as a result of an Erasmus+ project;
  • resources for ESOL teachers for improving language skills of (ex-)prisoners.
I wish you enjoyable reading,
Lisa Krolak, ALADIN coordinator
