The People & Culture Committee invites you to attend a meeting with Silvia Polleri, founder of the renowned InGalera Restaurant. This is the story of a woman who, by creating the world's first restaurant inside a prison, open to the outside community and managed by inmates, set out to prove that “a different kind of prison is possible.

Today, InGalera is a case study throughout Italy and has attracted considerable interest from other countries, including Japan, Mexico, Norway and France. The restaurant has also made headlines in the United States, with an article in The New York Times entitled “Italian Cuisine Worth Going to Prison For”.
