Abstract

digital transformation as a universal phenomenon has created a new reality in the rehabilitation of convicts. Digitalization promotes the development of social skills, self-esteem, rehabilitation and reintegration of convicts into society. However, many convicts are digitally incapacitated because they have never used digital technologies or because they were denied access to them during their incarceration. Due to the speed with which the digital world is developing, and the huge number of new technologies being introduced that convicts did not know before being incarcerated in penitentiary institutions, the world and reality are likely to change greatly when they are released. The prison system is aimed at rehabilitating convicts, but often fails to prepare convicts for release in our modern, technologically advanced society. The use of digital rehabilitation can facilitate a smooth return to society and ensure an improved quality of life after serving a sentence.
