Where to find us in Nigeria

Why Us?

At the African Forum for Restorative Justice, we believe in the power of healing, community and transformation. We bring together voices across Africa—survivors, advocates, policymakers, and grassroots leaders—to shape responses to harm that are grounded in dignity, connection and justice. Our platform reflects a deep commitment to shifting away from purely punitive models and embracing practices that restore relationships, empower communities and foster long-term peace.

Choosing us means aligning with a movement that understands the cultural, societal and historical contexts unique to Africa—and uses that insight to craft restorative practices that truly resonate. Here, you’ll find a collaborative space informed by research and lived experience, anchored in compassion and action. We don’t just talk about justice—we work with you to make it meaningful, relevant and sustainable.
