Expert Solution

Restorative justice, the power of empathy and understanding, and the role of collective memory and commemoration entail the ideas from the course readings. The concept of restorative justice posits that instead of solely stressing about punishment and revenge, people should pursue addressing the damages done, rebuilding relationships, and promoting an aspect of healing. In the Rwandan genocide context, the restorative justice process played an instrumental role in fostering healing and reconciliation (Hadžić, 2021). It is through transparency and reconciliation programs and dialogues that perpetrators and survivors could get a platform to express themselves, seek clemency, make behavioral corrections, and ultimately contribute to the healing of affected people and communities.
