Abstract
Women and Youth in Africa are disproportionately affected by conflict. Moreover, the role of women and youth in conflict has primarily been as victims in peace processes. The African Union Transitional justice policy seeks to encourage a more inclusive approach to conducting peace processes. There is therefore a need to better include women and youth in transitional justice processes. Therefore, this study seeks to answer the research question: “How does a restorative approach to transitional justice increase the inclusion and emancipation of women and youth in transitional justice processes?”
