About // Inga N. Laurent

  • Inga is a Fulbright Scholar and professor at Gonzaga University School of Law, teaching in the areas of criminal law and procedure, evidence, and dispute resolution. Her expertise is centered around restorative, transformative, and transitional justice, which she implements locally and globally through research, training, and generative design. 

  • I believe deeply in our human capacity for goodness while I concurrently recognize the world is fraught with challenges, frequently causing us suffering that distracts us from developing into our better selves. I believe in the power of truth, even (or especially) when difficult to hear, accept, or acknowledge. Grappling with hard truths creates immense possibility, fostering the conditions for wellness and wholeness to emerge. My work – both internally and externally – is to facilitate truth, and honor its presence once it arrives though nurturing, responsive, generative, and sustained individual and communal action.

  • Adaptation. Integrity. Humor. Growth. Transparency. Truth. Agency. Collaboration.
