Why is it the victims responsibility to play any part in this process? All the understanding and compassion is for the offender with none for the victim.
victim participation is completely voluntary - it often provides the opportunity for the victim to share the impact of the harm done and the effects it has had on their life on a larger scale - an aspect which is sometimes not fully understood otherwise. It also allows the victim to inform what they would need to rectify the situation in a way that would be meaningful for them. (i.e. if there was property damage, they may appreciate that the individual be directly involved with the repairs). Also what I have heard from victims is that it often provides closure to an offence in a way that they may not get through regular court proceedings.

I think offenders generally lack empathic abilities to understand how their actions affect others.
That's like saying why does a victim need to show up to court proceedings.
Victims can ask questions ig

Aren’t victims already forced to show up in legal proceedings?
Rape victims facing their offenders....that is not fair and can be traumatic
Criminal offenders don’t give a crap about the people that they’ve victimized.
It’s not a get out of jail free card, but it is.
It's horse shit
But it isn't. Keep doing research into restorative justice. I sense you might be approaching this with a bias.
What bollocks, when did siding with the perpetrator become acceptable
You might want to read more into restorative justice because that is not at all what this video said.
