Deadline: 14 December, 2021
The World Justice Project (WJP) has announced a call for participation in its 2022 World Justice Challenge.
The challenge is a global competition designed to identify, recognise and promote good practices and high-impact projects and policies that protect and advance the rule of law.
As rule of law performance continues to deteriorate globally in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, communities are falling further behind the promise of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to ‘leave no one behind’.
In order to fulfill this ambition and clear the pathway to more just communities, it is critical to identify and promote effective approaches to key rule of law challenges.
Benefits
