Ageing in prison: A strategic framework for the management of ageing offenders in the Australian criminal justice system

这项研究提供的知识和战略将有助于澳大利亚监狱和囚犯支助服务的方案和设施规划的重大改进。反过来，老年囚犯将从改善身心健康、减少无家可归和减少累犯中受益。通过更好地规划、减少效率低下现象和减轻社区保健和福利系统的负担，增进对老年囚犯需求的了解将有助于降低成本。该项目还将协助政府部门确保履行国家和国际人权义务。

The knowledge and strategies offered by this research will contribute to significant improvements in planning of programs and facilities for Australian prisons and prisoner support services. In turn, ageing prisoners will benefit from improved mental and physical health, reduction in homelessness, and reduced recidivism. Improved knowledge of the needs of ageing prisoners will allow reduced costs, through better planning, less inefficiencies and a decreased burden on community health and welfare systems. The project will also assist government departments to ensure national and international human rights obligations are met.
