What we do
HiiL works in partnership with public officials, justice sector professionals, entrepreneurs, and investors to realise people-centred justice and help reach SDG16.3 – equal access to justice for all. Through our work, we help justice practitioners to build solutions which allow people to resolve or prevent their justice problems. This means more people can get on with their lives faster, enhancing their wellbeing and economies.
Collecting data on justice needs
Justice is about the common people. That’s why we go straight to the people in various countries to measure their justice satisfaction and learn about their legal needs.
Researching best practices
We keep track of what works, what the barriers in solving the most prevalent legal problems are and what the ‘dead-ends’ in the justice sector are. Curious? Read on.
Building an enabling environment for people-centred justice
Real justice transformation requires diversity and shared commitment to a goal. Our experts help create transformations that are grounded in reality. Come together around a challenge.
Developing game-changing justice services
After thousands of years of outdated justice, we think it’s about time we speed things up. That’s why we find and support the best justice innovations in a region or country.
How we work
In the past 15 years we have developed a unique data-, research- and innovation-driven approach for delivering our mission.
