Overview
Restorative justice is an approach to justice that seeks to repair harm after crime or violence by empowering victims and offenders to participate in a dialogue. This method aims to promote healing, accountability, and reparation, rather than solely punishing offenders. With a focus on mediation and restitution, restorative justice offers an alternative to traditional retributive justice. Restorative justice has been implemented in countries such as Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. The concept of restorative justice is related to other concepts and theories, such as transformative justice and reparative justice.
