Opening the Justice System

Argentina / May 18, 2021

SUMMARY

JusLab is a space for discussing, co-creating and designing solutions for justice sector problems in Buenos Aires, Argentina using transparency and access to information, accountability and collaboration.

Law impacts nearly every aspect of life, including health, employment, education, housing, and public safety. Yet opaque processes, unequal access, and discrimination create barriers. According to the World Justice Project, two thirds of the world’s population face some justice problem with disproportionate impacts on the marginalized and poor.

The Buenos Aires Council of Magistrates and the Civil Association for Equality and Justice (ACIJ) launched the Open Justice and Innovation Lab (JusLab), an open justice and judicial innovation Lab that operates within the Judicial Council of Buenos Aires city as part of Buenos Aires’ 2018-2020 OGP action plan.
