The aim of restorative practices is to develop community and to manage conflict and tensions by repairing harm and building relationships. It can provide a forum whereby those most directly affected by wrongdoing come together to determine what needs to be done to repair the harm and prevent a reoccurrence. It allows the act to be rejected, whilst acknowledging the intrinsic worth of the person and their potential contribution to society.

The project will look:

- For the practitioners and organisations to provide an explicit framework in relation to their practice which aims at improving relationships on the grounds of values shared by the community;

- To target challenging attitudes and behaviour ultimately aiming at addressing and repairing conflict and any harm caused.

- To provide a common vocabulary both in ethos and actions for the organisations and professionals involved in different services.

- Staff working in the target areas will be trained in restorative practices to deliver on the outcomes stated above. The particular expertise of both regions will mutually develope practice.

Primera Visita  a Hull

El pasado mes de marzo, 10 integrantes del proyecto nos desplazamos a Hull para vivir de primera mano las prácticas restaurativas en los ámbitos educativo, social y judicial de esta ciudad. Fue una visita muy interesante y productiva que nos ha permitido sentar las bases para comenzar la implementación de estas herramientas de resolución de conflictos en el barrio de Son Gotleu. También aprovechamos para ofrecer a nuestros socios británicos una formación en mediación escolar y comunitaria.

First Visit to Hull


Last March, 10 members of the project move to Hull to live firsthand the restorative practices in educational, social and judicial district of this city. It was a very interesting and productive experience and it  has laid the groundwork to begin implementation of these tools of conflict resolution in the neighborhood of Son Gotleu. We also offered our British partners mediation training in school and community.
