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.
Philippe Ngirente and Teresphore Uzabakiriho
"We wanted to do more than just forgive, but to actually live as neighbours and friends, side by side."
Samantha Lawler
"Forgiveness is not about forgiving the act but forgiving the imperfections which are inherent in all of us."
Elizabeth and Fernando Jimenez
"At first it was very difficult to forgive Nick but then I realised it was not about forgiving the man but about forgiving his stupidity."
Dave Dineen
"I dislike the term 'victims' because it places a weight on people."
