All humans are hardwired to connect. Just as we need food, shelter and clothing, human beings also need strong and meaningful relationships to thrive.

Restorative practices is a transdisciplinary field of study that examines how to strengthen relationships between individuals and improve social connections within communities. Restorative practices are used in conflict resolution, creating dialogue, bridging gaps across divided groups, and building cultures where all members have a voice, work more effectively together, and become more innovative.

Restorative practices has a deep resonance with and has been influenced by a variety of collective philosophical and theoretical perspectives, including indigenous cultures and traditions from around the world. The IIRP seeks to respect and connect the integrity and heart of traditional practices with relevant interdisciplinary knowledge and a commitment to relationality and community across the globe.

The IIRP Graduate School is the world’s first accredited graduate school that specializes in studying the field of restorative practices, providing education, research, and collaborative application services.
