The Transformative Justice Collective (TJC), founded in October 2021, encourages the reimagining of Singaporean society as one that is compassionate and committed to abolishing systems of oppression so that individuals can not only survive, but thrive within communities of care.
Our members, most of whom are volunteers, are committed to educating ourselves and one other on transformative justice principles and the harms of Singapore’s criminal punishment and legal systems, and to share what we have learnt with other groups and communities in Singapore. To date, we have produced research reports and educational resources, and organised events, campaigns and community efforts geared towards ending state violence and building community-based capacities for responding to harm in generative ways.
There are multiple working groups within TJC, focusing on issues ranging from Singapore’s death penalty regime to drug policy, policing, incarceration and transformative justice facilitation.
