Penitentiary Unit No. 3, for men, is located in the town of Concordia, province of Entre Ríos. A cooperative of local prisoners has started operating there a short time ago.
In dialogue with Mr. Maximiliano Silvero, who is the educational coordinator of the aforementioned unit, Prensa Liberté, he was able to learn details of this cooperative venture, where local prisoners who make wooden handicrafts began a path of change for their lives.
Maximiliano begins this dialogue by telling us that at the beginning of October 2021, they begin to shape the project, convening the group of interns, working on its formation and clearing up some doubts. He cites that activities began, under the structure of a work cooperative, before receiving the corresponding registration.
