This session will focus on social and environmental impacts of ecological conservation programs in prisons and other communities. We will discuss ideas for increasing positive benefits for people and ecosystems. Most of the session will be dedicated to hearing from former program participants with the lived experience of incarceration. They will be invited to share their experiences in these programs including challenges, benefits, and recommendations for improvements. We will also briefly share select program models, education and training components, and collaboration strategies. Session presenters and audience participants will be asked to consider ways we may advance empowering education and training, improve post-release opportunities, broaden inclusion in the environmental movement, and support currently and previously incarcerated people as talented and resilient environmental leaders.

Food in the context of incarceration and reentry
The experience of eating while incarcerated profoundly impacts physical health, mental well-being, and human dignity. Additionally, lack of access to nourishing food upon release can affect reentry and lead to re-involvement with the criminal legal system. New programs centering nutrition education, employment in the agricultural and culinary sectors, and food systems learning are blossoming in the reentry space, offering promising examples of how a focus on food can be used to help individuals who have experienced incarceration to thrive.
This panel will bring a group of individuals working at the intersection of food and reentry into dialogue to address this critical issue. Using three different initiatives as case studies, we will explore the ways that food can be used as a tool to support reentry, mitigate the harm caused by incarceration, and aid in dismantling the structures that drive mass incarceration.

Measures and meanings of research and program evaluations
From a research perspective, what makes a green, ecological, or horticultural intervention “successful” in the context of incarceration or reentry? What should researchers measure?
And how?
This session explores how research projects can develop new knowledge that is relevant to academic disciplines, correctional agencies, and/or community-based organizations. Speakers will discuss some of the different methods and metrics that researchers and practitioners are using to evaluate programs in prisons, jails, and communities. The process of designing and implementing evaluations and research will be addressed, from the initial conception of a project, to developing research questions, selecting methodology, analyzing findings, and sharing results.
Presentations and discussion will cover a range of issues that come up in the research process related to methods, ethics, collaborations, and audience, with particular attention is given to the potential of participatory and action-oriented methods. The session includes three short research presentations followed by discussion.
Presentation 1: Recipes for Food Justice: Participatory Methods with Currently and Formerly Incarcerated People to Support Holistic Health, Wellbeing and Social Change. Systemic oppression in Canada has resulted in high rates of food insecurity among people entering and leaving prisons. Food justice – confronting unjust socioeconomic, political and historic barriers to nutritious and culturally appropriate foods – offers novel insight into promoting individual and collective wellbeing. I will share key lessons from a study exploring impacts of a prison farm program where incarcerated men grow and donate produce, and Participatory Action Research (PAR) using cooking as method to co-develop a food justice social enterprise. The power of recipe development as storytelling and research methodology and how collaboratively defining success can support project outcomes will be shared.

In a previous life she was a professional cook, and sees cooking as a creative act that can support people to empower, disrupt, and dream. Her PhD dissertation is focused on co-creating a food justice community with women on parole in the Lower Mainland.
Presentation 2: Delivering Land-based initiatives in UK Prisons. Since 2015, researchers at Coventry University have carried out several small evaluative studies examining land-based interventions in carceral settings. Key learning stemming from our work is the value of collaborative research within a carceral setting. Bringing parties with a mutual commitment to work together; evidence shows benefits in establishing positive relationships characterised by openness, trust, good channels of communication and preparedness to develop an understanding of each other’s culture. The benefit of collaborative working in a prison context is that it lends itself to co-production in which key stakeholders have a role in planning, designing and delivery of the studies undertaken.
Dr Geraldine Brown, Assistant Professor, Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resilience, Coventry University
Geraldine’s background is in Sociology and Social Policy and the focus of her research includes exploring individuals’ and groups’ experiences of public policy and practice, community engagement and community action.

Presentation 3: Greening the Prison Yard: A Discussion of Community-Based Participatory Research Evaluation in Two Horticulture Prison Programs in the U.S. Greening the Prison Yard: A Discussion of Community-Based Participatory Research Evaluation in a Horticulture Prison Program in the Southeastern U.S. This presentation will discuss a clinical sociological-oriented prison horticulture project in the Southeast U.S. Our goal is to produce knowledge-based change through Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) in carceral settings through our horticultural programs. The five phases of CBPR will be discussed with a keen focus on evaluation. The process of designing and implementing program evaluations will be discussed as well as some of the challenges of implementing research in carceral settings in relation to ethics and institutional protocols.
