Legal resources
The European Prison Litigation Network supports lawyers, NGOs and prisoners who litigate
and advocate for prisoners’ rights. We follow the European Court of Human Rights and EU
Court of Justice’s judgments and decisions, and monitor the main legal and policy
developments on prison issues in 18 European countries.
