On Justice and Reconciliation

Every two years, representatives of the national PFs assemble for consultations, exchange of information and ideas, training, and spiritual nourishment. At two of those meetings the representatives studied, discussed and debated two fundamental dimensions of the work of PF around the world: justice and reconciliation. Each meeting produced a written declaration of PF’s understanding of and commitment to these dimensions.

What is restorative justice?

Restorative justice is a theory of justice that emphasizes repairing the harm caused or revealed by criminal behaviour. It is best accomplished through cooperative processes that include all stakeholders.

Practices and programs reflecting restorative purposes will respond to crime by: (a) identifying and taking steps to repair harm, (b) involving all  stakeholders, and (c) transforming the traditional relationship between communities and their governments in responding to crime. more
