Our research agenda spans six interlocking themes. We work with primary data, cross-sector partners, and the practitioners who live inside the systems we study.
Measuring — and closing — the gap between legal rights on paper and the resolution of everyday justice problems.
Institutional reform, professional standards and community trust in the Nigeria Police Force and beyond.
Root causes of communal conflict and pathways to durable, community-owned peace.
Public perception, proportionality and reform in the criminal punishment regime.
The economics, culture and public service of the Nigerian legal profession.
The training, systems and leadership required for effective justice institutions.
Every question begins with the practitioners and citizens closest to it.
Surveys, interviews, administrative data and legal analysis, in combination.
Published openly, presented publicly, translated into practical policy.
Designed and delivered in partnership with the institutions we serve.
