RJ4All Europe, the sister organisation of the RJ4All International Institute, is proud to launch its first Annual Impact report presenting the key successes of 2024.
RJ4All Europe founder and Director, Prof. Theo Gavrielides, said:
The world is changing; the divisive narratives are being formalised and it is with great concerns that I see financial, moral and military wars breaking across Europe and the world. At the same time, I see communities waking up. The human rights movements are being refreshed, and community leaders are once again vocal. Power abuse is being challenged. And this is what we are doing at RJ4All Europe. We challenge power abuse using the consensual and peaceful tools offered by restorative justice. I took the learnings from our UK – based International Institute to build RJ4All Europe in Cyprus to expand the shared vision of “Addressing power abuse through restorative justice”.
Starting with Cyprus, the only divided EU member state, RJ4All Europe builds bridges to address and prevent harm, while reminding us what unites us. This is our first Impact Report presenting our work against our Theory of Change, and our mission. I remain in great debt to all those who believe in my vision. What began as a grassroots response to address poverty and power abuse has blossomed into a significant force for positive change across Europe and internationally. Our work — from youth-led social action to addressing divisive narratives and gender-based violence — demonstrates the profound impact that restorative approaches can have when communities embrace them. I am particularly proud of our cross-border collaborations, bringing together partners from diverse cultural contexts to tackle shared challenges. The stories and achievements highlighted in this report reflect countless moments of transformation, where dialogue replaced division and healing supplanted harm.
