Celebrating the Heroes of Criminal Justice

JusticeMakers is an online community that shares intellectual capital and best practices in the field of criminal justice. A project of International Bridges to Justice, JusticeMakers seeks to unleash the collective energies of criminal defenders from around the world and realize the vast potential of international human rights legislation.
