While working in Brazil with Voel as part of her International Walkabout, Emma found out about the social innovation work happening in Belo Horizonte. Members of the Minas Gerais Office of Strategic Priorities, part of the Belo Horizonte government invited her to visit the Complexo Penitencia Rio de Ponte Nova jail, to look at rehabilitation projects being developed by their Policy Lab.  This is one of the project featured in our story about how the Minas Gerais Office is using Design Thinking approaches to develop and deliver new public policy.
