RESCALED national offices, members and partner organizations are combining forces to promote small-scale, differentiated and community-integrated detention houses. We do so from a deep conviction that is rooted in key values and based on scientific evidence. When deprivation of liberty is the only solution, it should take place in detention houses.
RESCALED is a European network organisation with members in seventeen countries: Austria, Belgium, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Kosovo, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Romania and Spain. In each country, different national offices, members and partner organisations are supporting the implementation of detention houses in their own way.
RESCALED supports the use of detention houses instead of large prison institutions.
We bring the prison system to the attention of civil society, inspire for positive solutions and advocate for detention houses and their benefits amongst citizens, policymakers, practitioners, journalists and academics.
By connecting with policymakers, practitioners, journalists and academics from all over Europe, we build networks and platforms to exchange ideas on small-scale detention and co-create solutions.
We build, collect and share knowledge and expertise on detention houses and their implementation. Through the RESCALED Research Community, Knowledge Workspaces and by mapping existing practices across Europe.

Small-scale, differentiated and community-integrated facilities can be found in many European countries. There is not one, but a thousand detention houses.
The inspirational practices have been compiled as examples to illustrate innovative and effective ideas that may be useful to consider when implementing a new detention house. This database is managed by RESCALED.
