Watch the video: Coronavirus in prisons: What's happening across Europe?

In the first of three webinars in our series on different issues around coronavirus in prisons, yesterday's speakers presented the story of prison populations in their home countries during the pandemic.

• Matt Ford (Centre for Crime and Justice Studies) on England and Wales
• Cecile Marcel (Observatoire International de Prisons) on France
• Emma Jardine (Howard League Scotland) on Scotland
• Alessio Scandurra (Antigone, European Observatory on Prisons) on Italy
