VI. Conclusion and Art Making
What do you think are the most important issues/concerns that should be
addressed or needs immediate action?
1. Health and regular check-ups for senior citizens.
2. Most of us senior citizens have maintenance for high blood pressure. We
appreciate that the jail admin gave us the free maintenance.
3. With our aging bodies, we feel weak and prone to ailments, that’s why we need
regular check-ups.
The senior citizen women are asked to draw on a piece of cloth and draw or
make an artwork. The theme of the artwork is what gives them strength
and/or hope while in detention.
Some of the artworks on process of drawing.
ADDITIONAL NON-SENIOR CITIZEN INMATES ON FGD
Almost at the end of the senior citizen women’s FGD, three women inmates from
Provincial Jail joined the FGD. They were not senior citizens, so the documenter opted
not to focus on their stories since the scope of the documentation is for the conditions
of the senior citizen women inmates.
