‘Restoring Justice: A Challenge for Northern Ireland’

On 16th March 2004, WAVE Trauma Centre, in collaboration with INCORE (University of Ulster) held a one-day conference on the issue of Justice.

WAVE is an organisation, which provides care and support for people who have been bereaved, injured or traumatised as a result of the ‘troubles’ in Northern Ireland. For many members of WAVE the issue of justice remains a concept for the future rather than a present reality.

‘Restoring Justice: A Challenge for Northern Ireland’ examined how sections of the community perceive the term justice and what the justice issues are for communities in the transition to peace. It focused on different perspectives of justice and explored how some communities have responded to this issue with the development of community based restorative models.
