What if walls could talk? What stories would they tell at the Youth Correctional Inst. in Macau? Here at the Youth Correctional Inst., located on Estrada de Cheoc Van, the walls hold the echoes of young lives. The Youth Correctional Inst. isn’t just a building; it’s a reflection of Macau’s commitment to rehabilitation. In 2016, the institution, previously under the Legal Affairs Bureau, was restructured and became part of the Correctional Services Bureau. This shift brought the Youth Correctional Inst. under the same umbrella as Macau Prison, both now overseen by the Correctional Services Bureau, a branch of the Secretariat for Security. Data reveals a glimpse into the lives within these walls. In 2016, juveniles made up a small percentage of the total incarcerated population in Macau, just 0.9% of those under 18. While the number may seem small, each individual represents a story. The Youth Correctional Inst. serves a critical role, aiming to guide these young individuals towards a better future.
