EDITORIAL
 
"Welcome to the first Special Issue of the Internet Journal of Restorative Justice aiming to celebrate five years since its inception. First and foremost, I want to thank the many volunteers who have supported this ground-breaking publication and in particular Ms. Ero Michael, who has acted as its Content Editor since the begining. Many thanks also go to the Editorial Board and especially its Chair and good friend Professor Vasso Artinopoulou. Without Vasso’s passion and the Board’s direction, this Journal would not have achieved its objectives, and indeed look into the future with much excitement....."
