Cpn Tjr Digital Version Page 01

“Catholic Approaches to Transitional Justice and Reconciliation Processes: Guidelines for Reflection and Planning” is a tool for those working in post-conflict situations and trying to engage transitional justice and reconciliation in a distinctively Catholic way. The document offers an understanding of transitional justice and reconciliation through the lens of Catholic tradition; highlights lessons learned from worldwide Catholic engagement; provides guidance on project design, evaluation, and assessment; and includes a comprehensive list of global resources for further learning. It does not prescribe recipes for action, but gathers a diversity of on-the-ground learning and experience that can be adapted and utilized by Catholic peacebuilders as they discern, plan, and evaluate action for transitional justice and reconciliation in specific contexts.
