Private spaces, where you can find yourself away from prying eyes to enjoy a few moments of intimacy.
In Padua, the first in Italy, special 'rooms' will be created in the Due Palazzi prison in which inmates will be able to strengthen their emotional and sexual bonds with their partners.
The experimentation should start immediately with the creation of small mobile prefabs, essentially containers, in a green area of the prison courtyard.
"We have been waiting for this revolution for 25 years - comments Ornella Favero, director of Ristretti Orizzonti - and it seems to have finally arrived".
Even the director of the facility, in a meeting a few days ago, said he was in favor of the project.
The turning point was marked by sentence number 10 of 2024 of the Constitutional Court which established the illegitimacy of the ban on intimate conversations between prisoners and family members.
In addition to the 'love rooms', at Due Palazzi in Padua the possibility of expanding the telephone calls available to prisoners is also being taken into consideration.
