| Description |
|
This tool focuses on the institutional reform of the judiciary, law reform and access to justice, with specific emphasis on gender equality. It is directed toward the personnel responsible for justice reform within national governments, international and regional organisations and donors. Parliamentarians, law societies and judges’ networks, civil society organizations and researchers focusing on justice reform may also find it useful. It examines justice reform within the broad and often overlapping contexts of post-conflict, transitional, developing and developed countries. The tool provides suggestions and recommendations that can be adapted to specific reform contexts. The tool includes: an introduction to justice reform, the rationale for why integrating gender strengthens justice reform processes, practical actions to integrate gender into justice reform initiatives, and
an overview of particular gender and justice reform issues in post-conflict, transitional, developing and developed country contexts.
