Özet

In recent years, penal systems around the world have experienced a paradigm shift, emphasizing the importance of rehabilitation as a fundamental principle of prison and jail policy. It is necessary to explore the evolution of rehabilitation within the criminal justice system and its decisive role in promoting the reintegration of offenders into society. In the context of criminal law, rehabilitation is the removal of a prisoner's desire to commit a crime. Byaddressingthe underlyingcausesofcriminal behavior and providingoffenderswith education,vocationaltraining and therapeutic interventions, rehabilitation programs aim to facilitate long-term behavioral change and social reintegration. Our study argues that rehabilitation should be the premise of penal and prison management policy. In this context, the issue will be explained in the first part in the context of Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights and in the second part according to Article 8 of the Convention. In the last part, the meaning and function of rehabilitation will be emphasized. Sending criminals to prison to punish them is also perceived as an additional punishment that can torture them and create inhumane and degrading punishment. Therefore, it is essential to rehabilitate an offender and try to reintegrate him/her into society.
