Publication abstract:

This document presents the key findings of an evaluation of the Mornington Island Restorative Justice (MIRJ) Project, locally known as mediation or peacemaking1. The MIRJ Project design and implementation drew on a community development approach which sought to strengthen local capacity to manage conflict in its own way, without having to resort to violence or external agencies like the police and courts.
