Overview

The Restorative Circle is a structured dialogue tool grounded in restorative justice principles. It supports communities in addressing harm, conflict, or division by centering relationships, dignity, accountability, and collective problem-solving. The tool emphasizes inclusive engagement, shared responsibility, and healing-oriented outcomes, aligning directly with the Dialogue phase of the Community Learning Model. 

This tool draws on circle practices borrowed from Indigenous traditions and adapted for community dialogue and conflict transformation contexts.
