Restorative Leaders’ Summit
The Restorative Justice Council invites you to join us for our 7th Restorative Leaders’ Summit, a premier gathering designed specifically for practitioners, community leaders, and advocates well-versed in restorative justice principles. This summit presents a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding and enhance your application of restorative practices in real-world contexts.
As our society faces increasingly complex challenges rooted in harm, conflict, and inequality, it is imperative that we explore more inclusive and sustainable approaches. Restorative practice offers a transformative pathway that shifts power back into the hands of the community, fostering a profound sense of ownership, accountability, and collaboration among its members.
At this year’s Summit, you will have the opportunity to explore how restorative practices can directly address the pressing issue of youth disengagement in today's society.
Recent data from the Office for National Statistics paints a troubling picture: at the end of 2024, nearly 1 million young people (13.4% of those aged 16 to 24) were not engaged in work, education, or training, the highest rate in over a decade. This increase is particularly notable among young men, with 14.4% falling into the NEET (not in education, employment, or training) category, compared to 12.3% of young women.
In light of these challenges, the government's Youth Guarantee initiative aims to provide every young person with the chance to "earn or learn." Nonetheless, effectively addressing these issues requires innovative restorative strategies that can reconnect youth to education and employment pathways.
