MEETING BOLOGNA

OUR HOST IN BOLOGNA ROBERTO RIGHI

Guts is about developing a method that will help to reduce reoffending under young offenders by setting targets for their future and hand them tools to become better and more active citizens. Use of rap music and storytelling as a tool to communicate with the target group and as a language for them to formulate their ideas and goals.

Operators in the sector and the young inmates themselves will be involved as much as possible. The ambition is to co-construct indicators and criteria for comparing experiences.

-Developing tools for all those who work with young at risk.

A focus group with family members of the young inmates, ex-offenders, prison staff, organizations involved in probation outside the prison walls and of course the young inmates themselves. By using the collective intelligence of this group and with the simultaneous presence of young people, parents and operators, we will create an opportunity to rework the experience related to the crime but we will also create an opportunity for all young offenders to formulate a way forward.
