There is no system of justice to respond to mass abuse and slaughter. So we must wage justice with the creativity and determination needed to win a war. We combine on-the-ground investigations, trial monitoring, litigation and advocacy to bring perpetrators to justice and promote the rule of law.

We monitor criminal trials against the most vulnerable to free the innocent and advocate for the reform of unfair laws and judicial systems.

Waging Justice for Women
We fight to overturn laws that discriminate against women and girls, while investing in the future generation of gender justice champions.

Across our work, we engage in advocacy to ensure the successful initiation and development of legal action as well as long-lasting systemic change. We use a variety of legal tools to have decisions overturned, laws changed, and to defend vulnerable people.

We target decision-makers in national governments, international bodies, and the corporate world to press for legal and policy reforms that strengthen accountability.
