In this interview, Deputy Director of Prisons, Toon Molleman, shares insights into the in the Netherlands’ evolving approach to detention and rehabilitation. We discuss how the Dutch prison system addresses current challenges, such as staff shortages and capacity constraints, while maintaining a strong focus on humane conditions. He also explains the role of prison-based work programmes and support for finding employment outside prison for those nearing release, as well as the importance of early assessments to build effective, person-centred rehabilitation pathways.
