💡 In simple words: If two people have hurt or distrusted each other in the past, WikiDeal offers a fair way to talk it out, say sorry, and rebuild trust instead of splitting apart.

Commercial Truth & Reconciliation

Innovation — WikiDeal R&D

Origin	🟢 Théo Bondolfi
Status	Prototype 1 — In testing

What is it?

Commercial Truth & Reconciliation is a formal process, running parallel to Arbitration, for parties whose past disputes created structural distrust. It includes mutual recognition of damages, third-party estimation of harm on each side, symbolic compensation (such as a public apology and acknowledgment of wrongs), and calibrated preventive measures — for example stricter penalties for repeat offenders on deadlines or confidentiality.

How it works on WikiDeal

Trusted third-party facilitators mediate the process, with the goal of restoring trust and preventing project forks caused by personal conflicts — encouraging communities to cooperate or merge rather than fragment. The full procedure and facilitator roles are documented progressively as the platform evolves.
