See a panel exploring how U.S. correction facilities can adapt to the principals and methods of Nordic examples, and on their recent implementation in the "Little Scandinavia" unit of State Correctional Institute — Chester in Pennsylvania, with speakers Martin Gillå, Are Høidal & Jordan Hyatt!
This discussion took place at Scandinavia House on May 2, 2024, following a screening of the documentary "Prison Project: Little Scandinavia," which followed the SCI — Chester unit from 2018-23 as key staff visited correctional facilities in Sweden and Norway in June 2019 to observe how prisons in Scandinavia are run — with normality and humanity as core values — and returned home to introduce and adapt these elements to Little Scandinavia, which opened in May 2022. As 64 randomly selected inmates were transferred to the Little Scandinavia unit and isolated from the general population, new practices are implemented including moving from double cells to single cells, and having inmates order groceries and prepare meals for themselves.
Panelists Martin Gillå (Head of International Unit, Kriminalvården (Swedish Prison and Probation Service)), and Are Høidal (Senior Advisor and former Governor of Halden Prison, Kriminalomsorgen (Norwegian Correctional Service)) discussed this history of this project as well as related subjects in a conversation moderated by ASF Fellow Jordan Hyatt. Can Scandinavian incarceration practices, values and theories work inside an American prison? And what would the U.S. adaptation of these practices look like?
