Abstract

The Survivors’ Voices National Consultation, facilitated by Thriving Survivors, was conducted in the first half of 2021 as a response to the ongoing development of a National Restorative Justice Strategy for Scotland by the Scottish Government. The consultation aims to allow survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence to have their say on whether or not they believe Restorative Justice might be an approach that would be appropriate for them. There are three central research aims / questions addressed in the consultation: Is there awareness of Restorative Justice amongst survivors in Scotland? ; Is there demand for Restorative Justice amongst survivors in Scotland?; and; What are the specific needs of survivors in relation to access and design of Restorative Justice amongst survivors in Scotland? At the conclusion of the consultation, a series of conclusions and recommendations are made for consideration by the Scottish Government to allow for trauma-informed inclusion of survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence within the overall development plans for Restorative Justice in Scotland.
