As a setting, prisons offer a unique opportunity to invest in the health of disadvantaged and marginalised populations and address health inequalities and social exclusion - thereby achieving sustainable improvements in well-being for offenders and their families and in turn, helping to reduce rates of re-offending. This article draws on English and French experiences and doctoral research to advocate a shift from a pathogenic model towards a salutogenic model of health as a helpful way to address inequalities and thus, by promoting joined-up working across justice and wider systems, impact positively beyond 'health' for the effective resettlement of prisoners. The paper utilises examples from horticulture to further argue the powerful role of nature in the prison setting in mediating aspects of culture particularly relating to processes of socialisation. Critical success lies in bridging across systems and a commitment to joined-up working at all levels across and beyond prison.
作为一个场所,监狱提供了一个独特的机会,可用于投资弱势和边缘化人群的健康,解决健康不平等和社会排斥问题,从而实现罪犯及其家庭福祉的可持续改善,进而有助于降低重新犯罪率。本文借鉴英国和法国的经验以及博士研究成果,倡导从致病模式转向健康生成模式,以此作为解决不平等问题的有益方式,从而通过促进司法系统及更广泛体系间的协同工作,在“健康”之外产生积极影响,以实现囚犯的有效重新安置。本文利用园艺方面的实例,进一步论证自然在监狱环境中对调解文化方面,特别是与社会化进程相关方面所发挥的强大作用。关键的成功在于跨越各系统,并致力于在监狱内外的各级实现协同工作。
