The Project Human Development Workshops by Fundación Espartanos is operating fully within the San Martín prison.
The project is part of the Educational pillar of Fundación Espartanos, and along with the other three pillars of the foundation - Rugby, Spirituality, and Job Reintegration - it transforms the lives of people deprived of their freedom in the San Martin prison (of maximum and medium security).
