Restorative Circles offer ways for individuals and communities to establish connection, discover meaning and recover power on profound  levels. They create a forum for reaching agreements that help sustain effective and nurturing relationships both personally and within society. They have been successfully used in schools, neighbourhoods, organisations, and the criminal justice system in Brazil. The Circles bring the profoundly open-hearted clarity and tangible  power-sharing dynamics of Nonviolent Communication to restorative practices, which in recent decades have rediscovered and adapted ways for communities to promote responsibility and healing. Rethinking our view of and response to conflict, and engaging with the challenge of consciously building whole system responses to community well-being, has opened up revolutionary possibilities for furthering a culture of peace
