If, however, it is not the only one of the problems that are had in a prison, there are also drawbacks at the location level and specifically problems in prison policies since most of these are focused on punishment but not on the social transformation of people, it is Due to this, the implementation of a prison and penitentiary establishment specifically focused on the social transformation of women in intramural conditions is essential and together with this proposal a new model of prison policy that has proven to generate good results in several countries, this is the open prison, a concept in which the meaning of confinement changes since the inmate is given an area of semi-freedom or controlled freedom which can be accessed in a progressive way and complying with the guidelines of education, work and good behavior. In this sense, the inmate will be able to achieve this space of freedom and normality where they will be able to perform adequately in the society after her freedom, improving the dignity of the space and generating habits of entrepreneurship and control.
