Restorative Justice Week

Every year, on the 3rd week of November, it is Restorative Justice Week! (#RJWeek) During this international campaign individual pioneers and well-established organisations working in the field of restorative justice organise a series of events to raise awareness about restorative justice. Each year the EFRJ proposes a specific theme for the week and encourages everyone to take part in the celebrations and awareness raising actions. 
Are you already busy with organising something? Get in touch if you need support to promote your idea! The following theme is proposed for the 2024 international Restorative Justice Week:

“The promise of restorative justice in a polarising world”

This year the Restorative Justice Week takes place between 17-23 November!
