On June 25 in Vilnius, the conference “Women in Detention: The Invisible Pain of the Belarusian Penitentiary System” took place, where the results of expert research were presented, demonstrating systemic discrimination against women in detention, including problems with access to medical care and violations by the state.
We prepared a report from the human rights conference on the situation of women in Belarusian prisons. Experts speak about the psychological consequences of imprisonment, systemic problems of the penitentiary system, and why Belarus significantly lags behind European standards.
