Music & Storytelling in prisons
What is GUTS?
Our Objectives
Through an innovative approach we want to develop a method that will help to reduce reoffending under young offenders. We want to help them to set targets for their future and hand them tools to become better and more active citizens.
The basic idea of the project is simple, we will use rap music and storytelling as a tool to communicate with our target group and as a language for them to formulate their ideas and goals.
GUTS Rap Festival

On 15th April 2024 we organised the GUTS international Rap Festival in Oslo, at Jessheim vgs with 15 videos participating, from 5 countries!
It was a great success and the winner was MONSTER INSIDE, a music video from Dendermonde prison in Belgium!
