Abstract
ABSTRACT:An abundance of research has sought to understand how people seek to restore justice in the face of injustices. However, there is little understanding of how people with refugee and migrant backgrounds respond to systemic injustice and how this may shape their understandings of justice. This study qualitatively explored the meaning of justice and the pathways to restore justice for Uyghur people resettled in Australia. Twenty-seven interviews were conducted and analyzed thematically. The results highlight that justice is understood as equal rights, truth, and freedom. Restoring justice included acknowledging injustices, right of return, safety, self-determination, and political intervention.
