Higher education strategies such as critical feminist service-learning (CFSL) can help achieve true university-community engagement to achieve social good while allowing students to develop academic competencies, values, and social responsibility. This study analyzes the impact of a university physical activity\u2013based CFSL project implemented at a woman\u2019s prison. The study combined quantitative and qualitative research methods. Eighty-one students (24 women and 57 men) participated in the project over the 3 years in which it was run (2017\u20132018, 2018\u20132019, and 2019-2020). Aspects related to the four principles of CFSL were analyzed using data collected from questionnaires and reflective learning journals completed by the students and a semi-structured interview with the prison sports instructor. Our findings show that participating in the project brought about significant changes in students\u2019 beliefs and preconceptions about prisons, and helped them to develop their critical awareness. They also show that the project strengthened the collaborative relationship between the establishments and agents involved. In conclusion, CFSL is a powerful higher education strategy that can be used to show future educators and practitioners how sport and physical activity can drive social justice and contribute to the achievement of the United Nation\u2019s 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph18147501","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,14]],"date-time":"2021-07-14T10:13:42Z","timestamp":1626257622000},"page":"7501","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Critical Feminist Service-Learning: A Physical Activity Program in a Woman\u2019s Prison"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7755-6440","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ingrid","family":"Hinojosa-Alcalde","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institut Nacional d\u2019Educaci\u00f3 F\u00edsica de Catalunya (INEFC), Universitat de Barcelona (UB), 08038 Barcelona, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5556-1871","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Susanna","family":"Soler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institut Nacional d\u2019Educaci\u00f3 F\u00edsica de Catalunya (INEFC), Universitat de Barcelona (UB), 08038 Barcelona, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"235","DOI":"10.5944\/openpraxis.9.2.578","article-title":"Developing Civic Engagement in Distance Higher Education: A Case Study of Virtual Service-Learning (vSL) Programme in Spain","volume":"9","year":"2017","journal-title":"Open Praxis"},{"key":"ref_2","unstructured":"United Nations (UN) (2020, November 06).
