La journée internationale de soutien aux victimes de la torture est l'occasion de rappeler que la #Belgique n'a toujours pas ratifié le protocole optionnel à la convention contre la torture de l'ONU et n'a donc toujours pas de mécanisme national de prévention

#prisons2018 #OPCAT Need to focus on cruel, inhumane & degrading treatment of ppl in #detention & #prisons and how to do things better
#prisons2018 #OPCAT will require multidisciplinary inspection teams to investigate ill-treatment of ppl in closed environments, with rigorous & intensive scrutiny #accountability #transparency

#prisons2018 #Commonwealth #Ombudsman Michael Manthorpe: How will #OPCAT compliance change the treatment of #prisoners & #detainees & conditions in prisons & detention centres?
#prisons2018 #OPCAT #Inspections seek to improve & prevent, to ensure humane conditions & dignity, avoid torture, inhumanity, unnecessary suffering of ppl in closed environments (prisons, psych institutions, youth detention, &c)
#prisons2018 #VicOmbudsman Deborah Glass: #OPCAT requires National Preventative Mechanisms #NPMs ie independent oversight, investigation, recommendations & followup to monitor #ClosedEnvironments
#Prisons2018 #OPCAT #VicOmbudsman Deborah Glass: ‘how do we deal with recidivism when prison is the place so many people feel safest?’ We must work to reduce violence, decriminalise drug use, attend to mental health needs & homelessness to cut #reoffending
#RPCon2018 #Ombudsman Deborah Glass giving us confidence that #OPCAT can actually prevent injustice and promote #rehabilitation in our prison system
Wonderful to hear Vic Ombudsman Deborah Glass on the potential for #OPCAT to shine a light on injustices such as the use of #solitaryconfinement #RPCon2018
