HiiL\u2019s Justice Accelerator programme is the only startup incubator dedicated to improving access to justice. \u201cAn innovative and scalable business model is essential to successfully making an impact,\u201d said Iran Huffels, Accelerator Programme Manager. \u201cThese startups go beyond SDG 16 in promoting inclusive societies and providing access to justice for all. Their impact is far greater. For example, in making people-centred justice possible, they reduce inequality (SDG 10), contribute to fair employment and economic growth (SDG 8), and facilitate people\u2019s access to services and safety toward building sustainable cities and communities (SDG 11),\u201d said Iran. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demo Day will also highlight our ideation and incubation programmes delivered by our hubs in Tunis, Nairobi<\/a> and Lagos. It will also feature the bespoke scaling programme for ready-to-scale startups, as well as the recently launched Innovating Justice Fund<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HiiL\u2019s mission is to help 150 million people prevent or resolve their most pressing justice problems by 2030. We believe that people-centred justice solutions and programming are the only way forward.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Driven by data and evidence, we identify and support best practices and champion getting what works to the hands of the people. To make this happen, we collaborate with a variety of stakeholders, including justice practitioners, regulatory bodies, funders and innovators to build an environment where scalable and game-changing interventions can thrive. It is our commitment to the financial sustainability potential of these interventions that drives our support to justice startups in the Justice Accelerator programme. Startups are a key driver in closing the justice gap. They come up with breakthrough ideas and implement them in ways that large businesses or institutions often can\u2019t.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We believe in a new vision of justice and we invite you to join us! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the <\/strong>HiiL Justice Accelerator<\/strong><\/a>:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To close the justice gap, we need to do more than improve the current justice system. We need to innovate and bring new services to scale that can prevent or resolve justice problems for everybody. Startups are a key driver in this transformation of the justice sector. They can devise breakthrough ideas that large businesses or institutions often can\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why we run our annual global Justice Accelerator, the only startup programme and innovation ecosystem builder in the world dedicated entirely to access to justice. The programme funds, trains and coaches a cohort of justice startups. During the 5-month long programme, we provide: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
