Who we are
Microjustice is a Dutch foundation dedicated to empowering marginalized communities and victims of humanitarian crises by ensuring access to fundamental legal rights. Through our Legal Rights Protection Program, we provide innovative legal aid solutions that help individuals (re)claim their rights and (re)build their lives.
What we do
Microjustice aims to meet people’s basic legal needs by providing accessible and affordable standardized legal services through a Digital legal Aid Platform. In addition, for advocacy purposes the Legal Rights Protection Barometer analyses the legal framework of a country with the aim to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the procedures fulfilling basic needs of people.
Our Tools
The Legal Rights Protection Barometer evaluates how effectively a country’s legal system serves its people by assessing access to legal assistance, the efficiency of legal procedures, and barriers like education, internet access, and financial capacity, providing data-driven insights to strengthen justice systems. The Digital Legal Aid Platform is an innovative tool that connects individuals with affordable, high-quality legal aid while integrating with a country’s legal infrastructure to ensure accessibility and compliance with national standards.

Legal Rights Protection Barometer
Since 2018, Microjustice has developed the Legal Rights Protection Barometer of Civil Justice, a research tool designed to analyse access to justice and identify gaps in legal rights protection within a country. This barometer evaluates the Justice Gap from the perspective of the people by examining three key areas:
- Access to Legal Rights – How education, internet availability, and financial capacity impact an individual’s ability to claim and protect their rights.
- State Efficiency – The effectiveness of government-organized legal procedures and enforcement mechanisms in providing legal protection.
- Legal Assistance – The accessibility, affordability, and quality of legal aid services available to the public.
By mapping these barriers, the Legal Rights Protection Barometer provides actionable insights to improve justice systems, strengthen legal frameworks, and promote universal legal rights protection.
Digital Legal Aid Platform
``Bridging People and Legal Professionals``
The Digital Legal Aid Platform is an innovative tool designed to provide accessible legal information and connect individuals with affordable, high-quality legal aid services. It serves as a bridge between people and legal professionals, ensuring that those in need can easily find trusted legal assistance.
The platform integrates with a country’s existing legal infrastructure, aligning with national regulations and the organizational requirements of the legal profession. By streamlining access to legal support, it helps individuals navigate legal processes efficiently while enhancing the reach and effectiveness of legal professionals.
