Values

Access to justice regarding the most urgent legal needs is a basic entitlement for all.
Legal empowerment is an essential element of a broader strategy aimed at human and economic development, which should be at the basis of international development cooperation.
Delivery of justice by letting supply and demand meet in a sustainable way at the local level.
Justice as bringing neutrality in relationships through cooperative processes.
Transparency of norms and procedures as a powerful change agent.
Research and development through a combination of field work by experts and NGO’s, insights from academics in the area of dispute resolution system design, and business ventures.
Open source development.
Advise, help and initiate local projects.
