In Australia, Jonathan studied indigenous dispute resolution methods practiced by the indigenous population for generations. In South Africa, Jonathan researched and studied the post-apartheid Truth and Reconciliation Commission and methods of restorative justice. Jonathan then went on to complete a Certificate in Dispute Resolution in The Netherlands that involved researching and participating in matters before the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice at The Hague. Having worked on restorative justice methods for years, Jonathan developed guidelines for non-profit organizations working on juvenile justice reforms, including authoring a study entitled Project Impact that made recommendations for alternative sentencing guidelines for juvenile offenders and at-risk youth.
