Exitprocesses and empowerment - a study of social cooperatives in the Vägen ut project

• "The project Exit - From prison to social cooperative" within the Equal partnership was carried out over the course of three years, and shows that important conditions for breaking away from a career of crime include freedom from drugs, work/employment and new relationships within a working community. Other important conditions include emphasising empowerment and opportunities to manage and determine for oneself the terms of the project work. The project was monitored by three researchers from Göteborg University who in this report describe and analyse the process of building social cooperatives from a number of different perspectives.
