9:00 am – 10:30 am EST/GMT-5 
Online Event

9 AM New York l 3 PM Vienna

The Bard Prison Initiative, in partnership with OSUN and Incarceration Nations Network, invites individuals at member institutions to the sixth BPI Global Initiatives Virtual Lecture with Manuel Iturralde on “The work of Grupo de Prisiones for the defense of prisoners’ rights.”

Manuel Iturralde is an Associate Professor at the Law School of the University of Los Andes (Colombia). He is a co-director of Grupo de Prisiones (Prison Group) at the same university. His current research interests are prisons, criminology, and the sociology of punishment. In January 2021, he published The Political Economy of Punishment and the Penal State in Latin America.

This lecture series is designed for a global community of practitioners in different higher education contexts in prisons and carceral spaces around the world. In ten virtual monthly sessions, different scholars will introduce attendees to several alternative experiences in prisons. The sessions will be an hour and a half long, and each session will end with Q&A. English-Spanish simultaneous interpretation will be available in all the sessions. 

The BPI Global Initiatives Virtual Lecture Series runs until June 2023.
