We are pleased to share a recently published article titled “Fear of Covid-19, adjustment, and well-being of the incarcerated in South African correctional facilities.”
This article is based on Dr Wandile’s postdoctoral study in the Department of Psychology. The study explored Covid-19 adjustment and well-being among incarcerated individuals, with a particular focus on experiences within Kgosi Mampuru II and Polokwane correctional centres.
Inside-out Outside-in is an inter-disciplinary grouping of South Africans interested in issues relating to Corrections. The group is composed of individuals who believe in facilitating processes where “outside” citizens can actively engage and collaborate with the “inside” correctional environment in South Africa. We encourage collaborative generation and dissemination of knowledge about correctional facility experiences, circumstances and initiatives. In this brochure, we list our official projects.
We are pleased to share the attached Inside-Out Outside-In South African Corrections Interest Group Annual Report. This report highlights our collective work, achievements, research outputs, community engagement initiatives, and partnerships throughout the year. It reflects the dedication, collaboration, and impact of the Inside-Out community in advancing engaged scholarship, supporting correctional communities, and strengthening academic and social transformation.
Thank you for your continued commitment, support, and valuable contributions to the Inside-Out project. We hope you find the report informative and reflective of our shared efforts 🎉.
