Bringing home to policy-makers and opinion-formers what Restorative Justice actually is – how it works, the emotional power it can generate, and the results it achieves – has been the main objective of a series of seminars offered in November 2004, March 2005 and June 2005 in London, England by the Winchester RJ Group. To do this, people who have been involved in face-to-face RJ conferencing, either as victims or perpetrators or community members, kindly gave up their time to come along with their respective RJ facilitators. As RJ develops and spreads, the impact of seminars such as these should not be under-estimated. They hope that all involved in RJ will seek similar methods of “bringing RJ alive†in their endeavors to provide information to others about this important toolkit for dealing with conflict.
