A day of Restorative Justice and Mindfulness (RJM): How do individuals respond to, react against, and cope with life's calamities that affect them directly or indirectly?
Definition of Disaster:
A disaster constitutes a severe disruption of a community's functionality, triggered by hazardous occurrences (natural or man-made) that surpass local capacity to cope, resulting in widespread human, material, economic, or environmental losses.
A traumatic event that overwhelms innate responses and necessitates external aid.
Impact: Inflicts severe harm upon individuals, property, or the environment.
Disaster = harm + unmet needs + traumatic responses
Restorative Justice = structured response to repair harm and rebuild relationships
RJM= Rebuild Restore Renew🌍
