Case Studies: Enabling access to justice in developing economies
We publish laws in 50+ developing economies, including digitising them for the first time in a country's history,
creating transparency into the law. We also train judges and run mobile courts and legal clinics in remote locations to
promote judicial independence

Digitising laws in Sierra Leone
Transparency of the law
In 2019, we digitised and provided 24/7 access to
10 years of Sierra Leone's laws
Previously, legal aid workers were sharing physical
law books across the country
Legal aid workers were able to triple case load after
digitisation, allowing them to dramatically increase
access to justice

Independent judiciary
Established mobile court in Borneo jungle
In April 2019, our team ran a mobile court in the
jungles of Borneo that handled 170+ cases
The court tackled cases related to statelessness,
land acquisition, and indigenous rights
Cases included issuing a young girl's birth certificate
so that she could prove her identity, and approving a
stateless individual to become a Malaysian citizen
