Reparative Justice
Reparative Justice is a framework aimed at addressing the harm caused by injustices, particularly in cases of systemic discrimination or violence. It focuses on repairing relationships and restoring dignity to affected individuals or communities, rather than solely punishing offenders. This approach often involves dialogue, acknowledgment of wrongdoing, and efforts to make amends.
Key elements of Reparative Justice include restorative practices, which encourage open communication between victims and offenders, and community involvement in the healing process. By prioritizing healing and accountability, Reparative Justice seeks to create a more equitable society and prevent future harm.
