Restorative Justice for Africa

Restorative Justice for Africa (REJA) was first conceived as an initiative in November 2017. However, we commenced operations fully in 2019. ReJA is a social profit organization that is promoting access to justice. And also, providing an approach that puts energy into the future, not the past. Certainly, an approach that begins with; who has been hurt, and what their needs may be. Hence, giving wrongdoers a way back instead of guaranteeing them a lifetime of hardship.

Our desire is to restore hope and justice to underserved people living behind bars. While also, promoting restorative practices that will create peaceful and accountable communities. We do this in collaboration with the Nigerian Police, the Correctional institutions, as well as other stakeholders. To ensure that, in Nigeria and across Africa there is truly a reformatory correctional system.
