On 24 November 2020, IDLO launched its new Strategic Plan 2021-2024 on the occasion of its Assembly of Parties. The launch event convened high-level speakers for a thematic discussion around the substantive priorities of the Strategic Plan and welcomed an interactive dialogue on the challenges and opportunities for Partnering to Advance the Rule of Law in Challenging Times.
Based on the concept of ‘people-centered justice’, the Plan seeks to empower justice seekers and emphasizes that justice systems must be built around a better understanding of people’s needs and human rights. Through the prism of SDGs 16 and 5, it also seeks to advance the contribution of the rule of law as an essential driver for sustaining peace and safeguarding and accelerating progress on the 2030 Agenda.
