restorative narratives
Explore forgiveness through real-life stories
We believe stories can transform how we see ourselves and relate to others. That’s why we share restorative narratives—real-life stories of people and communities learning to rebuild after difficult times.
Peter Woolf and Will Riley
"Talking is the only way forward. People who don’t talk (which is the majority of victims) are delaying and even maintaining the pain."
Rosie Ayliffe
"I hoped to find some sense of closure from finally meeting the man who had killed my child."
Ginn Fourie and Letlapa Mphahlele
"Vulnerable feelings, when expressed to other people, have the potential to establish lasting bonds."
Wael Salame
"I have remained active ever since, believing passionately that if Palestinian freedom fighters and former Israeli soldiers can form a group with a common cause, then anyone can."
