User:Geertivp/Wikipedia for prisoners

WMBE has received a letter from a prisoner in Marche-en-Famenne. He complains that prisoners do not have access to Wikipedia in their cell.

Should we contact minister Koen Geens to ask him what the rules are for internet access for prisoners, and how the Wikimedia projects could be made accessible by prisoners? This could make part of the social reintegration process.

Offline access (USB stick) could be a (preliminary but unhandy) solution; online access would be much better.

Prisoners could even write or amend articles. They have plenty of time? WMBE could provide a training?

Wikimedia (Belgium) has a mission of providing access to Wikipedia to all "Engaging people in free knowledge" -- including prisoners.
