This book is aimed at people involved in creating redress programmes and those who might have suffered abuse in care.

The first half of the book focuses on seven case studies which include a programme for survivors of the infamous Magdalene laundries in Ireland; schemes for the 'stolen generations' of Indigenous Australians and programmes for survivors of Canada’s residential school system, designed to eliminate Indigenous cultures.

The second half offers recommendations to policymakers. (From the author). Record #8967
