Book: “Practical Guide to Planning Restorative Actions at the Local Level”
“Restorative Justice” has emerged as an innovative approach to criminal justice, aiming to strengthen social bonds and foster social cohesion within communities. Dialogue, mediation, and reconciliation form the core pillars of this approach. In recent years, interdisciplinary researchers have increasingly explored the application of this concept in urban planning and design, recognizing cities as the primary setting for human habitation and activity in the modern world.
This book is a translation of a publication originally released by the CDI Institute in 2014 under the title “Practical Guide to Planning Restorative Actions at the Local Level.” The translated edition has been adapted to align the proposed framework and implementation steps with the capacities and expertise of Iran’s Local Facilitation and Development Offices. After briefly introducing the foundations of the restorative justice approach and the intended outcomes resulting from the interaction of its key components, the publication examines the process of developing operational programs within local development offices through a logical framework that includes both research phases and implementation steps. As a result, this work serves less as a theoretical exploration of restorative justice and more as a practical guide for applying restorative approaches within urban neighborhoods, with a particular focus on underserved communities.
