What is the primary goal of the 'Turning Blue' project, and how does it address the challenges faced by young offenders and the blue economy?

Around 1.5 million inmates reside in European prisons, with recidivism rates reaching 70% within two years of release in some countries. The EU-funded 'Turning Blue' project aims to combat this by connecting young offenders with jobs in the blue economy, addressing the critical need for skilled workers in this sector and providing former inmates with second chances.
