Reconciliation

Reconciliation is the long-term process by which all parties to a dispute (not just one party or individual as in the act of forgiveness) build trust, learn to live cooperatively, and create a stable peace. It can happen at the individual level, the community level, and the national level.  For our purposes, this also includes conflict transformation, conflict resolution, and conflict management resources.
