Restorative Practices in Neighbourhoods
The aim of the day will be to give attendees an understanding of restorative practices and several processes that they can begin to use in their daily work in neighbourhoods. The workshop will include practical hints and tips as well as role plays of neighbourhood/street-based scenarios.
This one-day course normally runs from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., though this is negotiable subject to minimum inputs and contents.
