The Way Back Home: A Hope for Reconciliation through Repatriation

“For the Naga cultural communities, human remains are sacred, these remains kept in far-away places have life and spirit, and this spirit will not be in peace, until and unless they find a resting place, and that is the Naga homeland.”

"How can this process of repatriation bring our Nagas together, bring our people together who are fragmented in so many ways? Secondly, how can we understand healing and reconciliation in this process, and in our context?"

Dr Wati Aier, Dr Panger Kechu, Dr Ellen Konyak Jamir and Nepuni Piku share how they began the RRaD journey and their impressions and hope for the Naga people, with the ongoing repatriation process of Naga ancestral remains from Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford, UK.
