Certain minimum basic activities must be guaranteed, such as daily outdoor exercise or the practice of essential religious rituals. However, the extent to which other activities have to be provided depends on the available resources and on your regime in prison.

A lack of daily activities, in combination with other inadequate conditions, may lead to physical and mental deterioration and may violate the prohibition against inhumane or degrading treatment. The inability to practice your religion due to your conditions, may violate your freedom of religion.

This section of the Guide will explain your right to education, work, outdoor exercise and the right to practice your religion and the extent to which you should be able to enjoy them in prison.
