The launch event of the Ministry of Justice and the State Probation Service campaign “The Path to Restoration Begins with a Conversation” at Uzvaras Parks

On 12 August, the launch event of the Ministry of Justice and the State Probation Service campaign “The Path to Restoration Begins with a Conversation” took place in Uzvaras Park.

The campaign aims to reduce stereotypes about probation clients and to promote public understanding of the restorative justice approach.

During the event, we presented the results of a public opinion survey on Latvian residents’ attitudes towards probation clients and restorative justice, screened the campaign’s human-interest story video, and unveiled a large-scale mural created specifically for the campaign. The artwork symbolically depicts a person’s journey from committing an offence to taking responsibility and restoring justice.

We invite everyone interested to visit Uzvaras Park and see the mural in person until 9 September. Thank you to everyone who joined us and took part in discussions about how we can build a safer and more cohesive society together.
