Post-canon fics that touch on the need to build a better society, and how all is not better just because the war is over... This accidentally ballooned into a bunch of links, because there was no one obviously choice I could pick, but obviously I don't mean that you should look at all of these! But maybe from the description one will jump out that interests you. (It's a little hard to point to one, I realized, because the theme of “there’s still a whole lot to do to rebuild wizarding society” mostly comes up as one thread within larger fics.)
Looking at it now, I suppose a lot of my post-canon fics are about characters dealing on a more personal level with the trauma of the war, e.g. More Than This World Can Contain, which focuses on various secondary characters (Cho, Dean, Viktor, etc.) rebuilding their lives after the war. Or Chambers, which is about Ginny doing the same – but also has Hermione right at the start of her arc of figuring out how to tackle the underlying prejudices that led to the war.
My headcanons about especially Andromeda and Hermione working hard to change the culture that led to the war(s) come up in various places, for example in Saying Yes (my Andromeda post-canon story). Or mentioned in the drabble collection Twenty Years On.
Or, If You’ve Got a Lantern Hold It High revisits some of the werewolves Remus met during my version of HBP, still facing prejudice but now embarking on the slow work of integrating werewolf and human society. (A werewolf child goes to Hogwarts!)
