​
The Limerick CYPSC Restorative Practices Project aims to embed and sustain restorative practices (RP) within education, youth, community and justice settings in the Moyross, Ballynanty and Southill areas of Limerick City. RP is an approach that empowers people and communities to build positive relationships and resolve difficulties and conflicts fairly, using specific communication skills, ways of interacting and facilitated meetings. RP breaks down barriers between people through open, respectful communication and fair process.
In the context of the Limerick CYPSC Restorative Practices Project, Restorative Practices can be defined as:
''A framework for building, maintaining and strengthening relationships and responding to conflict through authentic conversations, that facilitates a shared understanding of what happened and how things can be made right''.
