remedying

Putting things right

Remedying is the act of correcting, fixing, or providing a remedy for something wrong or inadequate.

Where remedy as a verb emphasizes the solution itself, remedying highlights the ongoing process: The company is remedying the safety violations, remedying past injustices takes more than good intentions.
