Abstract
This contribution proposes some research trajectories to address the issue of motherhood in detention, taking compassion as a pedagogical posture according to the perspective proposed by the American philosopher Martha Nussbaum. This perspective must be contextualised in the feminist debate to ensure that everyone not only has the right to be a mother, but above all to be conscious and fulfilled women, thus opposing the patriarchal postures that still persist and resist in the prison world, denying changes, evolutions, rights.
