Accountable and accessible criminal justice systems
that uphold human rights and the rule of law better address the drivers of violent extremism.

Where criminal justice systems are weak or inaccessible, violent extremism can thrive. We have trained thousands of police officers, prosecutors, defense attorneys, judges, and corrections officials to equip them with the knowledge and skills they need to handle terrorism cases in a manner consistent with human rights and the rule of law.
