Restorative Justice

Restorative Justice is an approach to justice that prioritizes repairing the harm caused by crime rather than merely punishing the offender. It involves all stakeholders—victims, offenders, and the community—in a process that encourages dialogue and understanding. The goal is to address the needs of the victim, help the offender take responsibility, and restore relationships. This approach contrasts with traditional punitive systems by focusing on healing and prevention, fostering accountability, and aiming for outcomes that benefit all parties involved. Ultimately, it seeks to create a more just and harmonious society.
