Conferences
Mission after Custody, 6th Conference, June 24 2011
Empowering Communities towards Crime Prevention, Recidivism Control and increasing acceptance of prisoners. Uganda Prison Service is characterized by lost opportunities, and increased re-offending which indirectly raises its budget.
Since the first black Commissioner General, late Fabiano Okware’s regime, the platform was laid to improve service delivery and involve prisoners in active service than ever before.
Uganda Prison Service has always been under funded leading to loss of direction from 1984-1995, although efforts are made by the current Commissioner General Dr. Johnson Byabasaijja to put them on the right track and increase the civil society participation in the rehabilitation process, the challenges still stand.

The theme for this year's conference will be 'Unlocking the Second Prison'
The ICPA 2011 Conference will consider how partnerships and collaborative working with and beyond organizations have improved service delivery across the correctional spectrum. It will seek to explore how prisons and community agencies can work effectively with each other and with other agencies to improve the transition from custody to the community and to improve and support interagency co-operation.
