Restorative justice is a process of harm resolution that focuses on repairing harm to the relationship between victims and their offenders, while still maintaining proportionality within the justice system. 

Determining fair and equitable solutions is difficult. When we think systematically about how to go about this, we need to think of ways to both repair the harm and address the underlying systems that lead to it in the first place. In order to do this, we need to consider proportionality, rehabilitation of the victim and offender, the needs of the victim and offender and how to deter future crimes.
