Reparatory Justice

Reparatory justice is a concept that focuses on addressing past wrongs—such as injustices, discrimination, or harms—by taking actions that repair or compensate for those harms. It involves acknowledging the wrongdoing, understanding its lasting impact, and implementing measures like apologies, restitution, or policy changes to restore fairness and rebuild trust. Essentially, reparatory justice seeks to make amends and create a more equitable society by actively correcting historical or ongoing injustices.
