<p>This event features a socio-trial—a groundbreaking, community-driven approach to justice that goes beyond guilt or innocence. Socio-trials create space for truth-telling, accountability, and healing by blending restorative practices, participatory theater, and community dialogue.</p>

<p>As part of the audience, you become the jury—joining in deliberations that explore the deeper social, cultural, and political questions raised by the exhibition. Together, we’ll imagine what justice can look like when it seeks not just punishment, but transformation, reconciliation, and lasting change.</p>
