A UN prison advisor swung through Zimbabwe and basically fanboyed over how the corrections system runs things with actual humanity instead of just warehousing people. Meissner Phillip from the crime prevention unit said Commissioner General Moses Chihobvu and the Pathways to Reintegration Foundation get it right by treating rehabilitation like a group project where everyone has to pitch in, not just guards throwing inmates back on the street after their time runs out.

Phillip visited Mazowe Farm Prison, which has been around since 1987 and runs mining operations plus a brick factory through public-private deals that employ around 150 people. The facility officer, Tafirenyika Chikazinga, explained they want ex-cons learning trades and getting their heads straight so they stop cycling back through the system, and the whole setup aligns with those Nelson Mandela Rules about treating offenders like humans who can actually change.
