Fact finding tour to Europe 2006
In January 2006, Kim Workman, National Director, Prison
Fellowship New Zealand, was invited by the Minister of
Corrections, Hon Damien O’Connor to take part in a fact
finding visit to Europe, to consider the impact and
effectiveness of imprisonment on offenders, and alternatives
to imprisonment.

Prison Reform
“Beyond the Holding Tank”
Social Policy and Parliamentary
Unit, Salvation Army, New Zealand. February 2006
Public debate around prison policy is often based on
rhetoric and emotion rather than experience and evidence.
Individuals and groups tend to be polarised or labelled as
supporting 'offenders' or 'victims' or being 'soft' or
'tough' on crime. The aim of this discussion document is to
cut through these false dichotomies.

Kim Workman
Toward an Agenda of Prison Reform - Prison Fellowship of New
Zealand (2006)
Kim has just returned from a fact finding tour of the UK,
Netherlands and Finald, with the Minister of Corrections. He
uses that experience to reflect on the purpose of
imprisonment, and offers alternative ideas to the way New
Zealanders think about prisons. He concludes by recommending
a four point strategy for change, Calling for a public
debate about the reality of prison and imprisonment, and
active public education program, seeking viable alternatives
to imprisonment, and active involvement by the community.
