An access to justice discussion with Hina Jilani and Vivek Maru

Описание: Billions live outside the protection of the law. The Elders have launched a new Access to Justice program to help achieve the promise of "justice for all" in the Sustainable Development Goals.

This program will highlight and support the work of community paralegals to fill the justice gap, and work to ensure justice is accessible to those who need it most, especially women, people living in poverty and minority groups. The program will amplify the voices of grassroots activists and civil society, and engage with heads of state and policymakers to help drive development, social justice and economic growth.

This wide-ranging conversation between Vivek Maru, CEO of Namati, and Hina Jilani, renowned lawyer, civil society activist, and member of The Elders, explores, among other things, this new program, how grassroots justice defenders help fill the justice gap, and why they need increased protection.
