1. Nelson Mandela Rules (UN Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of
Prisoners)
I located the official UN document Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of
Prisoners (the Nelson Mandela Rules).
Rule 12 (Accommodation – All detention shall be managed so as to
facilitate the reintegration of prisoners into society). It stipulates that material
conditions of imprisonment—including personal hygiene, adequate lighting,
ventilation, and access to sanitation—must preserve the prisoner’s physical
health and human dignity (United Nations, 2015, Rule 12).
Rule 22 (Educational Programmes). This rule emphasizes the importance of
providing prisoners with education at all levels—ranging from basic literacy to
higher education—and meaningful leisure opportunities, facilitating their personal
development and reintegration (United Nations, 2015, Rule 22).

Nelson Mandela Rules). United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.
2. Offender M’s Education
a. Positive Impact of Completing Grade 12
