Answering the Call for Justice | Eduardo Gonzalez | Episode 34

When discussing justice, many think that there is a one size fits all approach. In reality, justice has many different interpretations that are applicable to a wealth of different contexts and scenarios. It is important to have justice processes that are designed holistically and take into account the knowledge of other cultures and most importantly the diversity of the human experience.

On this episode of the Think Peace Podcast, our host Colette Rausch sits down with Think Peace Learning and Support Hub Director of Truth-Telling and global transitional justice expert Eduardo Gonzalez to explain how his experiences growing up in Peru during a time of civil strife laid the foundation for his interest in transitional justice, how the field has evolved from its early iterations to become more inclusive of different viewpoints, and how the notions of trauma, healing, and human rights have informed his approach to transitional justice and peacebuilding.
