INTERNATIONAL REPORT ON TRAINING NEEDS ASSESSMENT OF PRISON STAFF – The 2-year project “B-COMPETENT.
Boosting Competences in Penitentiary Staff in Europe” (2019- 2021), co-funded by the EU Justice Programme and implemented by a Consortium of 7 Partners from Italy, Spain and Albania, aims to build the capacity of prison front-line civilian staff through the acquisition of specific skills and competencies related to human rights protection with a focus on foreign inmates’ special needs and rights, in line with the EU and international law and to Recommendation CM/Rec (2012)12.
s national prison services recognize internal gaps in dealing with increasingly multi-ethnic correctional environments, B-COMPETENT aims to tackle training gaps of prison staff: the innovative B-ComPetent cross-border train-the-trainers programme, combined with practical multilingual tools, best practices sharing and awareness raising actions, will provide trainers with multidisciplinary competencies necessary to properly train the civilian front-line prison staff.
The latter will gain increased knowledge of EU legislation and standards related to human rights and will acquire horizontal skills to manage cultural diversity-related issues and enhance dynamic security in prisons, thus preventing episodes of radicalisation.
