In the fourth and final event of North Shore Restorative Justice Society and Capilano University's 2026 Speaker Series, we'll hear from NSRJ Director of Programs, Nermin Karim, and Capilano University's Dr. Sarah Yercich on how restorative justice can be used even in situations of gendered and sexual harm.

The Restorative Justice Speakers Series aims to deepen public understanding of restorative justice as a transformative approach to conflict, harm, crime, and community-building by bringing together academics, justice and other professionals, and the broader public in meaningful dialogue.

Presented by North Shore Restorative Justice and Capilano University Criminology Department in partnership with the West Vancouver Memorial Library and the North Vancouver City Library, the Speakers Series was designed to inspire four conversations, each focused on a different aspect of restorative justice.
