Beach Walk 490 - Rethinking Prison in Norway

Here is a walk on the University of Hawaii campus in Mānoa, talking about a radical concept for a prison in NorwayDoes punishment have to be barbaric or should it include true rehabilitation? Do criminals come out meaner and less civil or more in the typical US prison? This prison in Norway allows its inmates to walk along the beach, to fish, to grow their own food as they learn how to be self-sustaining citizens. They are still in prison – remember – but the goal is not just punishment, it is learning how to be a productive member of society.Bastoy Prison in NorwayHawaiian Word:Hale paʻahao: PrisonBe in Touch!
