Indigenous Roots of Restorative Justice
Grounded in Indigenous traditions, restorative justice emphasizes accountability, healing, and community-centered approaches to harm.
This workshop will introduce participants to the historical and cultural foundations of restorative practices while creating space for reflection and dialogue. Attendees will also engage in a hands-on activity, crafting their own talking piece out of clay. This talking piece is a meaningful object used in many Indigenous traditions to facilitate respectful listening and shared storytelling in circle processes.
